Excerpt from: The Rebellious Spirit, Chapter 6

"My notion about the rebel and rebellion is very simple: a man who does not live like a robot conditioned by the past. Religion, society, culture – anything that is of yesterday – does not in any way interfere in his way of life, in his style of life.

“He lives individually – not as a cog in the wheel, but as an organic unity. His life is not decided by anybody else, but by his own intelligence. The very fragrance of his life is that of freedom – not only that he lives in freedom, he allows everybody else also to live in freedom. He does not allow anybody to interfere in his life; neither does he interfere in anybody else’s life. To him, life is so sacred – and freedom is the ultimate value – that he can sacrifice everything for it: respectability, status, even life itself. Freedom, to him, is what God used to be to the so-called religious people in the past. Freedom is his God.

“Men have lived down the ages like sheep, as part of a crowd, following its traditions, conventions; following the old scriptures and old disciplines. But that way of life was anti-individual; if you are a Christian you cannot be an individual, if you are a Hindu you cannot be an individual.

"A rebel is one who lives totally according to his own light, and risks everything else for his ultimate value of freedom. The rebel is the contemporary person. The mobs are not contemporary." Osho
