What is the reason for Osho's monk-like attire?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Clothing does not define spirituality; true identity is found in the freedom and ease of being, not in the robes we wear."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, he wears monk-like robes because they are the most 'scientific' clothing—loose, non-binding, airy—supporting freedom, ease, and a blissful way of living. He consciously selects what serves life from any tradition, and his attire also demonstrates that garments do not make a monk; identity and spirituality are not defined by external uniforms or labels.
He wears loose monk clothes to stay free and comfy—and to show that clothes don’t make someone spiritual.
