According to Osho, belief today is merely a stopgap for ignorance—something you adopt only when you don’t know. Facts need no belief; they are known through direct experience and experiment. Hence modern insistence on blind belief has rightfully collapsed. He urges replacing belief with inquiry: test, see, and know for yourself, transforming secondhand fictions into firsthand understanding.
If you can check something yourself, you don’t need to believe it—belief is just what we use when we don’t know.
