According to Osho, making pronouncements about artists without firsthand knowing or experience only exposes our cultural habit of empty babble—opinions borrowed from hearsay and ego, not from awareness. He urges direct encounter and testing: meet, listen, see, and then speak. Otherwise, judgments merely defend vested interests and distract from authentic understanding, creativity, and spirituality.
Don’t talk big about artists if you haven’t truly met their work—first see for yourself, then speak.
