Core Insight:
According to Osho, political “success” requires a near-absence of intelligence and conscience: a deeply sleeping awareness that can lie, deceive, and abandon morality. Cultivate a single-pointed lust for power, a hard heart that climbs on people’s heads, and a changeling face—endless masks, sycophancy, and boot‑licking—shifting sides as needed. Intelligence, artistry, and meditation, he says, belong elsewhere.
