Osho: Jealousy—Society’s Device to Divide and Rule

What is jealousy? Osho goes to the roots of the phenomenon of jealousy. “Society has exploited the individual in so many ways that it is almost impossible to believe. It has created devices so clever and cunning that it is almost impossible even to detect that they are devices. These devices are to exploit the individual, to destroy his integrity, to take away from him all that he has got—without even creating a suspicion in him, even a doubt about what is being done to him. Jealousy is one of those tremendously powerful devices. From the very childhood every society, every culture, every religion teaches everybody comparison.”
