Core Insight:
According to Osho, money is a life-affirming power: it buys almost everything needed for a rich, cultured life—comforts, learning, great art and music—but never the essential inner treasures of love, compassion, freedom, enlightenment. Religions oppose money because they oppose life’s sensual fullness; such moralism (and political bans like Aurangzeb’s) weaponizes poverty and deprivation to control sensitivity. Real mastery honors inner wealth while using money wisely.
