What happens when a master leaves the physical realm?

"When a master leaves the body, nothing essential is lost; true growth is rooted in your own awareness, not in the physical presence of the master. In their absence, their consciousness becomes universal, inviting you to embrace your freedom and responsibility in the journey of self-discovery."
According to Osho, when a master leaves the body nothing essential is lost. True growth depends on your own awareness, not on the master’s physical presence. Unembodied, the master’s consciousness becomes universal—felt in silence, love, and your heartbeat—while you stand alone, responsible and free, using meditation to unfold your intrinsic being.
When the teacher dies, you still grow by being awake yourself, and you can feel their presence inside you and all around.
