Why do new diseases like heart failure, cancer, and AIDS appear when success is announced?

New diseases arise not from the absence of progress, but from the repressive morality that distorts our natural energies and perpetuates fear. Until we confront our conditioning and embrace life-affirming truths, pathology will continue to reinvent itself.

— Osho
According to Osho, scientific breakthroughs and headlines don’t cure the deeper roots of illness: society’s repressive, fear-based morality and the medical establishment’s cowardly silence about it. Enforced celibacy, sexual shame, and misinformation distort natural energies, create perversions and psychosomatic damage, and so new diseases (like AIDS) arise despite ‘progress.’ Until conditioning is challenged and honest, life-affirming education prevails, pathology will keep reinventing itself.

New diseases keep showing up because we live against our nature and stay scared and misinformed, not because science fails.
