Why can't I understand you?

Not understanding is the first step toward true understanding; drop your borrowed ideas and listen with a loving, innocent heart.

— Osho
According to Osho, not understanding is the first step and the first blow to the ego toward real understanding; the true obstacle is your accumulated, second-hand knowledge and conclusions. When you keep measuring against scriptures, you either confirm and learn nothing or react in anger. Understanding travels over love. Drop borrowed ideas, listen freshly, with a loving, innocent heart.

Your head is full of borrowed ideas that argue with what is said; admit you don’t know and listen with love, not comparison.
