According to Osho, unhappiness or happiness is not fate from past-life karma; it arises from present causes and choices. He rejects the priestly karma doctrine, asserting the law of cause and effect works here and now: each act carries intrinsic reward or pain. Misery stems from ignorance, exploitation, and rigid systems—so awaken, act intelligently, and transform your conditions.
Your happiness isn’t fixed by past lives; it comes from what you and your society do now, so change your actions and the system to change your life.
