Ask Osho!

Have religions done any good to humanity?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Organized religions are dead corpses that have harmed humanity; true transformation arises only from the individual’s inward journey to the living source of joy and creativity."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, organized religions are dead corpses that have harmed humanity—fueling wars, fear, and conformity—while giving no real transformation. What truly blesses is individual religious experience: a living, inner flowering that needs no church, priest, or belief, only an inward journey. Abandon creeds; turn within to the living source of joy, creativity, and fearlessness.
Religions as institutions hurt people; real goodness comes when you look inside yourself and feel the living truth directly.
