According to Osho, people react with antagonism when someone’s words or actions disturb their conditioning and shatter comforting routines, beliefs, and identities. The old mind defends its habitual, easy path, resists doubt, and resents being awakened from sweet dreams. Such resistance is natural—not evil—triggered by fear, insecurity, and the pain of leaving manmade consolations for larger, unknown truths.
