definition
"The true Master transcends all traditions, embodying a choiceless awareness that invites you to discover the greatness within yourself."
According to Osho, the title "Master of Masters" points to the one who arrives beyond all traditions, when comparison collapses into choiceless awareness. In his playful Moksha parable, no Buddha or Christ is selected; a voice declares the greatest is yet to come. After pretenders fall, Osho appears—embodying no-teaching, humor, and total inclusiveness—thus signaling mastery that synthesizes and transcends every path.
He jokes that when no famous wise one could be picked as best, the true best would be the fresh, living presence—and then he arrives to show the real master is beyond labels.
