According to Osho, when the words of awakened ones pass into the crowd, they gather thousands of distortions and lose their living fragrance, becoming dry slogans of prohibition and duty—dead like 'ahimsa' in popular morality. Only living words—like 'love'—retain vitality: though dust settles, they can shake it off. Choose life’s yes over sterile, glass‑coffin purity.
When many people repeat holy words, they often twist them into lifeless rules; only truly alive words, like love, stay fresh and keep working.
