What is the significance of social justice in addressing atrocities against marginalized communities?

Dignity begins when the oppressed refuse the gods of their oppressors and step into their own power, dismantling the beliefs that normalize cruelty.

— Osho
According to Osho, social justice demands a radical break with the religious-ideological structures that legitimize caste atrocities. Begging for entry into oppressive temples only perpetuates humiliation; dignity begins when the oppressed refuse those gods, priests, and scriptures and step out. Transformation is achieved not by patronage from above but by courageous self-respect, structural disidentification, and practical exit—even conversion—dismantling the very beliefs that normalize cruelty.

Don’t ask oppressors for permission; walk away from the system that hurts you so you can regain respect and freedom.
