Religion is Love, Politics is the Opposite - “I Say Unto You” – Osho pg. 240-241


Religion is Love, Politics is the Opposite - “I Say Unto You” – Osho pg. 240-241

“Religion is love, intelligence, awareness, meditation, desirelessness, non-ambition.  And politics is just the opposite: ugly ambition, violence, aggression.”

“Politics is the desire to rule over others, and religion is the desire to free oneself from others and to free others from oneself.  Religion is freedom.  Those who love freedom, make others free also, and those who love slavery and want others to make others slaves, become slaves to their own slaves.”

“Remember that the very desire for power is an ugly desire.  It makes you ugly.  In a religious consciousness there is no desire to have any power over anybody.  That brings beauty; it brings freedom not only to you, but freedom for others too.” - Osho

True Martial Arts represents love, intelligence, awareness, meditaiotn, desirelessness, and non-ambition.  Corrupted Martial Arts is just the opposite, it is ugly ambition, violence, and aggression.

Corrupted Martial Arts is the desire to rule over others, true Martial Arts is the desire to free oneself from others and to free others from oneself.  True Martial Arts is freedom. 


In true Martial Arts there is no desire to have any power over anybody.  A true Martial Artist simply expresses himself honestly and inspires people to be true to themselves in total freedom. – SFL July 26 2015

  1. Ugly ambition has been glorified to the point that is called Martial Arts. My true desire is to restore the Martial Arts back to its purity. I want nothing more.
