Does worship have any value, and if so, why is it opposed?

True worship is not in rituals, but in the presence of a living master, where remembrance awakens and transformation occurs.

— Osho
According to Osho, worship has profound value—but not the hollow, formal rituals commonly called worship. True worship (upasana) means sitting near a living master, dwelling in his presence until remembrance awakens and transmission (Upanishad) happens. It steadies you in life’s struggle, unites knowledge with action, and keeps the inner flame fresh. He opposes only counterfeit worship divorced from presence, remembrance, and transformation.

Real worship isn’t rituals; it’s staying near a true teacher so you remember the Divine and live it.
