"The old man, the way he has existed for centuries, is afraid of life, not afraid of death. Death he worships, life he renounces.
"All the religions that have prevailed in the world have been..."
Osho continues:
"All the religions that have prevailed in the world have been..."
"What is renunciation of life if not the worshipping of death? They are afraid of life because life seems to be against their religions. A man who loves life will not bother at all about temples, and mosques, and churches; life is enough unto itself.
"One who has known life in its depths and in its heights will not bother at all whether God exists or not because he has already known something more real, something more certain than any God has ever been.
"All gods are hypothetical.
"Only life is the real God.
"Naturally, the priests are worried that you should not get too much involved with the mysteries of life, because if you are too much involved with the mysteries of lifewho is going to be a Christian, or a Hindu, or a Mohammedan, or a Buddhist? Who is going to worship dead gods, dead saints? Who is going to listen to the priests?
"One who has heard the song of life itself, one who has lived intensely and totally the music of life itself, who has danced it, is not going to be concerned about belief systems – he has no need. And there are only two ugliest professions in the worldone is that of the prostitutes and the other is that of the priests.
"Of course, the profession of the priests is far worse because the prostitutes only sell their bodies, they don't sell their souls. And they don't interfere with anybody else's freedom, they don't destroy your joy; on the contrary, they in some way enhance it, intensify it, make it more aflame. It is the priest who sells gods, and who enslaves man, and who interferes in everybody's life – his freedom, his individuality.
"He can not tolerate seeing anybody happy, because the person who is happy is not going to be his customer; his business is dependent on your misery. The more miserable you are, the more you will seek the advice of the priest, the more you will worship statues, the more you will look beyond life for some consolation. This life is full of suffering. You have to believe in a life other than this life just to bear it, just to tolerate it; otherwise, it will become impossible even for a single moment for any intelligent man."
