According to Osho, a poet’s dharma is to sing of love—the timeless, essential fragrance of life—and not to be entangled in politics, ego, or commerce. Only through meditation does ego drop and authentic poetry flower; then words arise from one’s own lived love, not borrowed feelings. The poet serves eternal values, awakening hearts rather than forming factions, competing, or manufacturing popular, trashy verse.
A poet’s real job is to love deeply and share that love honestly, which happens when the ego quiets through meditation—not by chasing fame or fighting others.
