Osho vs. Nietzsche (Freedom and Individuality): Osho promotes spiritual freedom through meditation, while Nietzsche’s “will to power” focuses on individuality without spiritual elements. Osho’s enlightenment contrasts with Nietzsche’s “Übermensch” concept.

Osho and Freud (Mind vs. Consciousness): Freud’s psychoanalysis revolves around the unconscious mind and repression, while Osho emphasizes transcending the mind entirely to achieve self-realization, focusing on consciousness.

Spirituality vs. Materialism: Osho combines spirituality and material enjoyment, promoting the concept of “Zorba the Buddha.” Nietzsche criticizes religion and spirituality, focusing on earthly experience and self-overcoming through reason.

Osho vs. Traditional Eastern Philosophy: Osho’s teachings align with Eastern traditions like Buddhism and Hinduism, but he adapts these concepts for a modern audience, often critiquing traditional spiritual practices for being overly rigid.

Osho on Love vs. Freud’s Sexuality: Freud views human motivation through a lens of sexual energy (libido), while Osho speaks of love as a transformative spiritual force that transcends mere physicality.

Critique of Rationalism (Osho and Western Thought): Osho critiques Western rationalism and scientific thought, suggesting that spirituality transcends intellect. Thinkers like Descartes emphasize reason as central, contrasting with Osho’s focus on inner consciousness.

Osho and Existentialism: Existentialists like Sartre argue that life has no inherent meaning, and we must create our own. Osho acknowledges this but adds that meaning can be found through meditation and self-awareness.
