Ask Osho!

Is the doer and instigator of wrongdoing also the Lord if doership is absent?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Without doership, sin ceases to exist, and the Divine cannot be labeled as the instigator of wrongdoing. True surrender transforms every act into a sacred expression, free from the chains of ego."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, the Divine is beyond human divisions of good and bad; wrongdoing is born only from egoic doership. When all doership is surrendered to the Divine, ego drops and evil becomes impossible. Claiming “God did it” while stealing is hypocrisy—true surrender also accepts the beating as Divine. Therefore, without doer-ness there is no sin, and the Lord cannot be called the instigator of wrongdoing.
If there’s no “me” claiming to act, bad acts can’t happen—so don’t blame God for your stealing; only ego does wrong.
Why this matters practically
- Dissolving the sense of doer reduces harmful impulses naturally.
- Test surrender by accepting outcomes as Divine, not just convenient acts.
- Shift from ego-based morality to authentic goodness.
