Reason in itself is destructive

“Alone, it is nothing but a cutting weapon,” writes Osho in a letter to a disciple

Love.
Reason is not enough;
it is necessary but not enough.
The beyond must be remembered – and always,
because reason in itself is destructive;
alone, it is nothing but a cutting weapon.
It creates a man anti-all and pro-nothing.
It creates absolutely negative minds which can criticize
but cannot create,
because reason has no healing force within itself;
it is only a tiny part and not the whole of life
and the healing force is always with the whole.
