Can a simple person without knowledge attain God, and if so, how?

True simplicity arises not from ignorance, but from the conscious innocence of a mature heart that has witnessed the complexities of life and chosen to transcend them.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source outcome
Yes—but not by staying ignorantly simple like a child; grow up, notice what’s inside you, and then become simple again from understanding.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents mistaking ignorance for spirituality, pointing to conscious innocence instead.
- Invites you to face jealousy, anger, and violence, and simplify your heart.
- Encourages living fully and then letting go—opening the way to the divine.
