What happens when traditional values disintegrate in society?

The disintegration of traditional values is not a loss, but a blessing that compels us to live in the present with intensity and freedom, birthing a more mature humanity.

— Osho
According to Osho, when traditional values disintegrate, it is a blessing, not a loss. After initial pain—loss of security, hope, and familiar identities—a revolution in consciousness arises: people can no longer postpone life to the future and must live meditatively in the present, with intensity, totality, and freedom, inaugurating a more mature, new humanity.

When old rules fall apart, it hurts first, but then people stop chasing tomorrow and start living fully right now.
