Does the ritual of twenty-one days belong to any particular tradition of meditation and self-experience?

Traditions can become stagnant; true growth lies in the living experiment of self-experience, where we borrow, discard, and create methods that awaken our awareness in the present moment.

— Osho
According to Osho, the twenty-one-day process doesn’t belong to any established tradition; it’s a pragmatic device for the contemporary seeker amid fatigue with both the ‘old’ and the ‘new.’ Traditions inevitably ossify; what matters is a living experiment that enables direct self-experience. So he borrows, discards, and invents methods freely, guided only by what awakens awareness now.

It isn’t from any religion—it’s a three-week, try-it-yourself lab to taste truth directly.
