According to Osho, rituals and temples are like keys: they have value only when they open an inner lock to living treasure. Born from a deep seed in human consciousness, they persist because, across many lives, we remember their former power. When their purpose is forgotten, they become burdens. Revived with awareness, the same forms can again unlock the sacred within.
Rituals help only if they truly open your heart and awareness; otherwise they’re just old habits we carry around.
