Core Insight:
According to Osho, prayer and meditation move in opposite directions: prayer is a worded dialogue with a personal, imagined God—comforting, relational, but dual, keeping you within heaven/hell frameworks. Meditation is wordless silence with no Other; God is an unnecessary hypothesis. In meditation, you rest in your own crystal being, beyond concepts, which alone opens moksha—absolute freedom—rather than dependence on a divine ruler.
