According to Osho, biblical images of lameness, deafness, blindness, drunkenness, sleep and death are not about bodies but our unconscious spiritual condition: we haven’t reached, heard, or seen the Real, though we live in God like a fish in the ocean. They diagnose egoic intoxication and habitual sleep, and challenge us to awaken through alert, moment‑to‑moment awareness so true life and joy can begin.
These pictures mean we act like we can’t walk, hear, or see God because we’re sleepy and drunk on ego, so we need to wake up and pay attention.
