According to Osho, politicians and sadhus avoid the ashram because they lack courage and fear genuine transformation. They’re anxious their doubts will be resolved, forcing them to drop entrenched habits, beliefs, and identities.

So they hide behind propaganda, send others as shields, and refuse the risk of authentic understanding.
They’re scared to come because the ashram would actually change them, and giving up old habits and roles is frightening.
