Core Insight:
According to Osho, the fantasy of an omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient God arises from two roots: fear of life, death, and not knowing oneself, and a compensatory will to power born of inferiority. By identifying with an all-powerful deity or his representatives, the believer borrows a sense of greatness—becoming a 'mini‑god'—but this only masks insecurity; it is psychological sickness, not a cure.
