What is the relationship between social and political structures and the individual?

The individual is the seed of transformation; when awakened, they reshape the very fabric of society and politics, which are mere reflections of collective consciousness.

— Osho
According to Osho, society and politics have no independent soul; they’re abstractions arising from individuals living and relating together. The individual is primary; collective structures merely mirror the level of human consciousness. Sleeping individuals react predictably, creating competitive, fearful systems; awakened individuals act spontaneously and unpredictably, reshaping relationships. Real transformation begins with inner awakening, not external reengineering.

Big groups are just labels; what really shapes society is how awake or asleep each person is.
