What happens when I experience confusion?

Confusion is born from clinging to borrowed beliefs; when you dare to say “I don’t know,” the fog lifts and clarity emerges.

— Osho
According to Osho, confusion is self-created: it arises when your head clings to old, borrowed beliefs while your heart recognizes their falseness. The master's words expose your sandcastle securities, provoking inner conflict. If you drop prejudices and dare to say “I don’t know,” confusion evaporates; with no fixed ideas, no one can confuse you. Become decisive by breaking golden chains and moving beyond consoling lies.

You feel confused because you’re gripping old ideas while a truer feeling says let go—admit you don’t know, drop the ideas, and the fog clears.
