What is the value of resisting war in the context of modern threats like atomic bombs?

Only a radical shift of consciousness can prevent catastrophe; when scientific power outpaces spiritual growth, inner transformation becomes the true resistance against war.

— Osho
According to Osho, resisting war—through protests, slogans, and political struggle—has little value today; it often mirrors the same aggression and can hasten conflict. Only a radical shift of consciousness can prevent catastrophe: spread love and meditation, grow inner awareness, and nurture a new humanity. When scientific power outruns spiritual growth, external resistance is impotent; inner transformation is the real prevention.

Angry protests don’t stop war; becoming peaceful and loving inside—and helping others do the same—takes away war’s fuel.
