According to Osho, 'looking' is a prejudiced search guided by prior concepts and conclusions, with the mind actively manipulating experience; it always misses reality. 'Seeing' is unclothed awareness—open, receptive, silent—letting facts reveal themselves and conclusions arise afterward. Only such innocent, passive clarity can meet truth or God; borrowed ideas merely reflect themselves.
Looking starts with an idea and tries to fit reality into it; seeing drops ideas and simply watches, letting truth show itself.
