According to Osho, past Buddhas condemned money and sex because, born into royal luxury, they fully indulged and discovered profound inner emptiness and boredom. They then universalized their personal frustration into a rule: renounce worldly pleasures to awaken. Osho calls this a human fallacy; rather than inherent evil, outer pleasures are to be fully experienced consciously, then naturally transcended.
They had lots of money and sex, felt empty, and told everyone to give them up—but Osho says these aren’t bad; know them fully and then grow beyond.
