What are the views on wealth and position?

“

Wealth and position are neither good nor bad; they are neutral energies that can become creative when approached with meditation and non-identification. Live like a lotus, fully engaged in your roles yet rooted in your inner being, allowing blessings to flow without ego.

Core Insight:
According to Osho, neither wealth nor position is inherently bad; both are neutral energies. With meditation and non-identification, wealth becomes creative and serves the world, and office is a function to be used, not a self to become. Live like a lotus: meditation within, roles without. Do the job fully, then drop it; keep ego out and let blessings flow.
Money and status aren’t bad—stay mindful, don’t make them your identity, and use them kindly, leaving them at work.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you use money and influence for service, not ego.
- Prevents stress by separating your inner self from your roles.
- Encourages daily meditation to keep balance and clarity.
