According to Osho, Mahavira’s ‘discernment’ (vivek) is an inner, wakeful intelligence that makes external policing, rules, and imposed morality unnecessary. When awareness flowers, people naturally keep to their ‘side of the road’; when it is absent, society substitutes policemen and commandments. True culture arises only when each person’s awakened discernment guides action, not fear, conformity, or mechanical obedience.
Real wisdom grows inside you so you choose what’s right without needing someone to force you.
