According to Osho, India drifts toward lawlessness because centuries of political and spiritual slavery conditioned people to obey outer authority instead of growing inner consciousness. With the British gone, the external enforcer vanished, and an imported, rootless democracy exposed a vacuum of personal responsibility and guidance—so unfamiliar freedom degenerated into disorder.
People were trained to follow orders, not themselves; when the rulers left and democracy was copied, there wasn’t inner self-rule, so freedom turned messy.
