According to Osho, politics is the collective lust for power and position—an ego-game that mocks true worth—whereas spirituality honors the one who has dropped all ambition, like Buddha. When ambition rules, politics stands antithetical to spirituality. A society matures when kings bow to seers, power yields to wisdom, and headlines give way to inner growth.
Chasing power shouts “me, me,” while spirituality lets go of “me,” so they pull in opposite directions.
