What is the nature of human stupidity?

Human stupidity lies in our attachment to roles and beliefs, which blinds us to the living truth of love; intelligence, in contrast, is playful, free, and ever-loving.

— Osho
According to Osho, human stupidity is our stubborn clinging to roles, beliefs, and institutions over living truth and love. It makes us serious, dutiful, and bored, preferring ideology to reality—so even God’s facts must be hidden. Because of this conditioning, teaching humans to love each other becomes an endless task; intelligence is playful, free, and loving.

Stupidity is holding so tightly to labels and rules that we forget to be kind, honest, and playful.
