Osho on Why do you not practice the Socratic method of dialogue?

Why do you not practice the Socratic method of dialogue?

Enlightenment is a wordless knowing; between knowers, silence suffices, for true vision cannot be transmitted through debate.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source practice
Because truth can’t be argued into you but must be seen, Osho chooses silence or spontaneous replies instead of step-by-step debates.
Why this matters practically
- Prioritize direct experience (meditation, awareness) over endless arguments.
- Use silence and presence to understand beyond words; listen deeply.
- Ask sincere questions and receive spontaneous guidance rather than seeking to win debates.
