According to Osho, life-energy in violence condenses and rushes downward like water seeking pits—driven by inner sorrow, dependence, and obsession with 'the other,' it enslaves and harms. In nonviolence, the same energy vaporizes and ascends—self-rooted, joyous, and independent, it seeks inner heights, liberates oneself and others, and orients the being toward freedom and the divine.
Violence makes your energy heavy and needy, pulling you down; nonviolence makes it light and happy by itself, lifting you up.
