definition
"To create a new society, we must first dismantle the old; only through precise corrections can we rebuild a world free from inherited conditioning."
According to Osho, society’s formation is conceived not by immediate blueprinting but by first dismantling harmful structures; creation follows destruction. He proposes rebuilding “point by point,” with concrete positive arrangements—for example, breaking the traditional parent–child bond of ownership and keeping only minimal, pleasant contact. From such precise corrections, a new social order emerges organically, free of inherited conditioning.
First we remove the harmful old ways, then we rebuild step by step with gentle rules—like limiting parents’ control so children only meet them in pleasant ways.
