What gives hypocrisy so much force and attraction?

Hypocrisy thrives only in the shadows of ideals; when we embrace reality with awareness, its power dissolves into nothingness.

— Osho
According to Osho, hypocrisy has no strength or charm of its own; it only appears powerful and attractive when it hides beneath ideals. Ideals create a respectable mask, giving hypocrisy cover, approval, and momentum—like a shadow that inevitably follows. Replace idealism with a realistic, life-affirming approach rooted in awareness, and the breeding ground for hypocrisy disappears.

Hypocrisy looks strong only because it wears the costume of noble ideals; live honestly and aware, and it loses its hiding place.
