Core Insight:
According to Osho, Krishna’s utterances arise from different levels of consciousness, later woven into the Gita as a dramatic compilation, not a single battlefield sermon. Therefore they contain contradictions. Osho evaluates each saying by experiential truth—accepting some, rejecting others—and explicitly opposes Krishna’s philosophical sanction of violence, which he deems more dangerous than violent acts without ideology. He rejects the dogma that Krishna was enlightened from birth.
