Why isn't knowledge of the scriptures helpful in finding the truth?

According to Osho, scriptural knowledge can’t reveal truth because it is borrowed, second-hand and dead—only words, reflections and commentaries. Truth is untransferable and lives in your own interiority; conclusions from learning create distance and barriers. Approach in silence and innocence, unlearning beliefs; Masters only help you drop knowledge so living awareness discovers 'Ah, this!' here-now.

Books can talk about truth, but you find it by being quiet and looking inside yourself, not by collecting ideas.
