According to Osho, contradiction arises because authentic teaching is a living, moment-to-moment response to reality’s flux, not a timeless dogma. Each statement is a flower of its moment; only when words claim eternity do they truly conflict. He intentionally contradicts to dehypnotize, prevent clinging, and keep seekers fluid, present, and empty—since except change, nothing is eternal.
Teachings can look opposite because they’re like weather reports for the moment, used to stop you from clinging and to keep you awake to now.
