Ask Osho!

What is the purpose of enlightened beings in teaching others?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Enlightened beings share their light not to create institutions, but to awaken the receptive hearts that thirst for transformation in this very moment."

According to Osho, enlightened beings teach not to build institutions but to pour their living light and love into receptive hearts now. They offer a fleeting, timeless glimpse within time, transmitting an energy that can awaken and transform the thirsty. Even knowing their work will later be distorted into business, they still share totally, because a few can receive and become enlightened.
They teach to share love and light right now so ready people can wake up, even if later others turn it into a business.
Why this matters practically
- Seek a living, authentic teacher instead of clinging to institutions and secondhand dogma.
- Be receptive and genuinely thirsty; real openness allows transformation.
- Use the present opportunity to awaken rather than worrying about future distortions.
