Why is nudity taught to people?

Nudity is not an ideology but a tool to strip away the layers of social conditioning, allowing us to embrace our true selves in the presence of nature and divinity.

— Osho
According to Osho, nudity isn’t an ideology but a tool to reveal truth: clothes symbolize social conditioning and defenses. Being nude occasionally—in safe, natural settings or therapeutic groups—helps drop hypocrisy, accept the body, and taste freedom. He rejects extremism; be natural and respectful of context, using nudity to reclaim innocence and authenticity before nature, God, and oneself.

Sometimes, in the right place, taking off your clothes helps you feel honest, free, and okay with your own body—it’s about dropping shame, not showing off.
