Core Insight:
According to Osho, authentic compassion is not sentimental; it dares to criticize whatever sustains illusion. When ego, tradition or priestcraft fog the mind, compassionate truth-telling feels like an attack, yet it is surgical—cutting false props so freedom can flower. Without compassion, criticism is egoic condemnation; with compassion, it is a mirror and a medicine, hurting the lie to heal the being.
