Core Insight:
According to Osho, Mahavira and Buddha did not preach renunciation as an end; they celebrated fulfillment. True self‑restraint and renunciation arise effortlessly after inner attainment—joy, awareness, and wisdom—making the nonessential drop like junk after a treasure arrives. Forced asceticism by the ignorant breeds dryness and misery; the wise first realize, then shedding happens, revealing a vibrant, joyful life.
