Core Insight:
According to Osho, religions portray God as a person not because mystics found Him so, but because priests who 'manufacture' religions need a personable deity to justify worship, rituals, scriptures, temples, and their own role as indispensable mediators. A personal God sustains hierarchy, language monopolies, and exploitation; if divinity were seen as impersonal 'godliness,' the entire priestly apparatus—and its power—would collapse.
