Core Insight:
According to Osho, there is no 'way'; life is being, not becoming. The 'new narcissism' of growth movements strengthens the ego through assertion and self-enhancement, producing a fictitious, bonsai-like self. Osho’s path moves toward egolessness: dropping the pretender ego reveals vast, authentic being. Real growth comes from deepening roots in awareness, not inflating identity; otherwise one remains an imaginary, stunted self.
