What is the significance of naming or labeling concepts?

According to Osho, names and labels are only pragmatic tools within thought; they stitch together aggregates (like 'chariot' or 'Nagasena') and crystallize the egoic 'I.' Beyond thought, reality is a nameless presence—pure being—where personal and collective distinctions vanish. Mistaking labels for reality breeds ignorance; liberation is freedom from the labeler itself.

Names help us talk, but they aren’t what things truly are; underneath all labels is just quiet being.
