Core Insight:
According to Osho, “simple” does not mean materially poor; poverty rarely equals guilelessness. Most so‑called poor still crave wealth—they’re simply unsuccessful in the same race. Understanding arises after fulfillment: those who have attained wealth can directly see its futility, so it naturally drops. This “poverty of spirit”—like Buddha’s—opens the door to religion; it isn’t class privilege but ripeness through experience.
