According to Osho, to be 'persecuted for righteousness' means society attacks you when you live from your inner rightness, not borrowed morality. Such persecution is a blessing: it proves your authenticity, burns the ego, deepens courage and aloneness, and opens the door to the Kingdom—an inner state of freedom, love, and God-alignment beyond approval or fear.
If people hassle you for truly doing what’s right inside, it makes you stronger and freer, bringing you closer to deep peace and love.
