Osho argues that being is superior to having, as it allows for true self-realisation and an understanding of one's inner core, unlike having, which leads to endless, futile desires and a constant search for external fulfilment. Through anecdotes, he illustrates how focusing on having traps individuals in a cycle of external pursuits, while being offers a path to inner peace, enlightenment, and understanding. Osho emphasises that the journey to being is difficult and requires hard work, but it ultimately leads to a state of grace, which is a transformative, divine experience.
