Core Insight:
According to Osho, innocence is a state of profound bliss and uncluttered being, untouched by outer events—even death. It is not ignorance but a conscious childlikeness that drops second‑hand knowledge and fear. Truly innocent people do not suffer; those who suffer are merely ignorant or conflicted by ambition and fear. Real innocence chooses purity over success or reward, and its joy remains regardless of circumstances.
