What is the role of genetic engineering in creating a 'superman'?

Genetic engineering can enhance our physical and mental capabilities, but true evolution into a 'superman' occurs only when these advancements are harmonized with awakened consciousness. Science perfects the instrument, yet it is meditation, love, and awareness that create the music of life.

— Osho
According to Osho, genetic engineering is a natural next step in human evolution, unfairly resisted as “against nature.” It can improve bodies, intelligence, and health—just as crossbreeding and technology have already done—expanding our potential. Yet the ‘superman’ emerges only when these biological upgrades serve awakened consciousness; science perfects the instrument, but meditation, love, and awareness make the music.

Genetic tools can make a stronger body, but only a wise, aware heart makes a truly better human.
