Is self-knowing possible without preconceptions?

Self-knowing blossoms only when you release your preconceptions; it is in the openness of inquiry that truth reveals itself.

— Osho
According to Osho, self-knowing is possible only when you drop preconceptions. Deciding in advance—whether it’s possible or not—closes the door and turns inquiry into self-confirmation. Keep the mind open; experiment and experience first, then let understanding arise. Truth reveals itself when you stop seeking witnesses for your beliefs and move inward without bias, agenda, or conclusions.

Don’t decide anything about yourself beforehand; look inside with an open mind and learn from what you actually experience.
