According to Osho, prayer and repentance are utterly unrelated: repentance is an ego-driven, past-oriented patchwork that perpetuates mistakes, while prayer is a total plunge into the living present—free of guilt, demands, plans, or ambition. True prayer is spontaneous wonder and gratitude, not ritual or confession; it is conscious presence, here and now, unrelated to yesterday or tomorrow.
No—prayer isn’t saying sorry; it’s quietly feeling thankful and fully awake in this moment without asking for anything or replaying mistakes.
