Should I give up my faith in God if faith is considered harmful?

Drop blind faith and embrace the journey of direct knowing; true religion is not belief, but the lived experience of transformation.

— Osho
According to Osho, drop blind, secondhand faith—including “faith in God” as a concept—and replace it with direct knowing born of sadhana and inner exploration. Belief is an opiate; real religion is lived, experiential transformation. Trust your own inner lamp, not borrowed authorities. Let practice permeate life, dissolve the ego’s separation, and realize truth firsthand rather than clinging to consoling ideas.

Don’t just believe because others say so; look within, live the search, and trust your own inner light until you know.
