definition
"Discard the ready-made answers of society and allow your own authentic questions to arise; only then will true answers bloom within you."
According to Osho, yes—and no. Society routinely plants ready‑made answers before any living question arises, as a safety measure that suppresses authentic inquiry; these secondhand answers breed only secondary, derivative questions. Yet true answers appear only when a real, existential question flowers within you. Therefore, discard implanted beliefs and begin from the beginning so your own questioning can summon an authentic, experiential answer.
People often give you answers before you even wonder, but the only real answer comes when you truly feel the question yourself.
