Does being contradictory imply that one always changes their mind?

Truth is moment-bound; real intelligence speaks what is true now, unburdened by the need for consistency.

— Osho
According to Osho, contradiction doesn’t mean fickle mind-changing; it reflects living from no-mind—an immediate, existential response to a constantly changing reality. Consistency belongs to computers and dullness. Truth is moment-bound: morning is morning, evening is evening. Real intelligence adapts, speaking what is true now, unconcerned with aligning today’s clarity to yesterday’s context.

Being contradictory just means you’re saying what’s true right now—like morning now and evening later—not flip-flopping, but paying attention.
