Why have there been no great masters among women despite their better feeling for others?

definition
"Women embody the heart's truth with their love and receptivity, yet mastery demands the sharpness of reason; it is not about hierarchy, but about realizing one's essence in the dance of existence."
According to Osho, women’s superior feeling, love, and receptivity are ideal for discipleship and even enlightenment, but mastery requires using sharp reason and argument to transmit the heart’s truth—employing mind as a servant of heart. Hence women often become enlightened devotees, not masters. This isn’t hierarchy but function: like biological roles differ, the essential achievement is realization, not the public role of master.
Women may awaken deeply, but teaching big crowds needs lots of head-talk, so their gift of feeling shows up more as discipleship than as public “mastery,” and what really matters is awakening, not titles.
Why this matters practically
- Prioritize inner realization over chasing roles or titles.
- Use mind to serve the heart when sharing truth; communicate in your natural strength.
- Stop comparing genders; honor complementary functions in spiritual growth.
