Did you ever have a family?

Learn from the mistakes of others; do not inherit their misery.

— Osho
According to Osho, he was born into a large Indian joint family but deliberately chose never to create a family of his own. Witnessing constant conflict, pettiness, and suffering convinced him to remain unmarried. Despite parental pressure - even bringing a top advocate - he refused, and later his father admitted relief. He emphasizes learning from others' mistakes, not repeating inherited misery.

He grew up in a big family, saw lots of fights, and decided not to get married or start his own family.
