Creativity Is the Greatest Rebellion in Existence
In the past all famous artists have been well-known for their bohemian side of life.
Osho, please can you say something about creativity and discipline?
The bohemian life
is the only life worth living!
All other kinds of lives
are only lukewarm;
they are more ways of committing slow suicide
than ways of living life passionately and intensely.
In the past it was inevitable
that the artist had to live
in rebellion,
because creativity is the greatest rebellion in existence.
If you want to create
you have to get rid
of all
conditionings,
otherwise your creativity will be nothing but
copying,
it will be just a carbon copy.
You can be creative only if you are an individual,
you cannot create as a part of the mob psychology.
The creator
cannot follow the well-trodden path,
he has to search out his own way,
he has to inquire in the jungles of life,
he has to go alone,
he has to be a dropout from the mob mind,
from the collective psychology.
