What does the name given to us signify about our becoming or inner nature?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Do not let a name define you; remain inwardly nameless, free from the confines of identity."
According to Osho, a given name says nothing about your becoming or inner nature; it is only a useful social label. He may give you a new name to break attachment to the old, but even the new must not define you. Do not identify with any name—remain inwardly nameless, free of fixed identity.
Your name is just a tag for others; who you really are inside has no name.
Why this matters practically
- Reduces ego attachment and social conditioning.
- Lets you respond freely instead of defending an identity.
- Encourages inner spaciousness and openness to change.
