Do great masters attract recognition and followers from lesser leaders?

outcome
"The lower cannot perceive the higher; only when your consciousness rises through silence and meditation can true recognition and discipleship blossom."
According to Osho, great masters are seldom, if ever, recognized by lesser leaders; it is existentially impossible for the lower to perceive the higher. The higher can see the lower, but the blind cannot know sight, nor the well-frog fathom the ocean. Only when one’s consciousness rises—through silence, meditation, and bliss—does true recognition and discipleship become possible.
If you haven’t grown inside, you can’t recognize a true master—like a well-frog can’t imagine the ocean.
Why this matters practically
- Stop seeking validation from crowds or authorities; cultivate inner growth instead.
- Practice meditation and silence to develop the capacity to recognize truth.
- Avoid judging the profound with narrow, familiar measures.
