According to Osho, self-condemnation and self-pity arise from chasing ideals that judge the real you, pulling you out of the present into tension, anxiety, and chronic dissatisfaction. Perfectionism fragments you and creates insoluble problems, bondage, and fear. Drop ideals, accept your human limits, and act with totality here-now; wholeness brings freshness, fulfillment, and inner freedom.
When you judge and feel sorry for yourself, you’re chasing an impossible ideal—accept yourself and do things wholeheartedly right now.
