definition
"Teaching must honor timing and individual context; true compassion waits for receptivity, allowing the word to flower without coercion."
According to Osho, the Gita’s wisdom is a living, intimate dialogue meant for a seeker who is ready—never a slogan to be blasted at everyone. Teaching must honor timing, freedom, and individual context; forcing it breeds resistance and turns religion into irreligion. True compassion waits for receptivity, letting life prepare the listener so the word can flower without coercion.
Share the Gita only when someone truly wants to hear it and the moment is right for them.
