According to Osho, in Buddhism—especially Zen—forms, doctrines, and rituals have value only as provisional pointers; the essence is not knowing but being. Clinging to forms or information thickens the mind and creates a wall to ‘what is.’ Awakening happens by transforming the seer’s awareness, not by changing objects, scriptures, or beliefs.
Forms are like signposts; don’t worship the sign—wake up and walk the path inside you.
