What is the nature of hate?

Hate is merely an exaggerated expression of strong dislike, a reflection of our accidental associations; in true awareness, we can recognize our preferences without hostility.

— Osho
According to Osho, hate is not an intrinsic quality of our being; it’s often just exaggerated language for strong dislike, born of accidental associations and memories. True hate is unnecessary—things ‘have nothing to do with me.’ Awareness reveals preference without hostility; spontaneity may use the word ‘hate,’ but essence remains untouched by enmity.

Hate isn’t really inside you; it’s just a loud way of saying you don’t like something because old memories made it seem bad.
