What happens when an enlightened person appears in existence?

outcome
"When an enlightened being emerges, existence conjures the darkness to illuminate their light; it is not a battle of opposites, but a harmonious play where even betrayal serves the truth."
According to Osho, when an enlightened person appears, existence immediately summons the complementary opposite—betrayers, enemies, darkness—so their light can be seen. It's one play, not two camps: Jesus needs Judas, stars need night. The opposition doesn't defeat the sage; it frames and spreads the message, often through persecution, making their presence unforgettable and their truth shine more vividly.
When a truly wise person shows up, life brings their “Judas” and tough times so everyone can notice their light.
Why this matters practically
- Stop dividing people into good and bad; see all roles as part of a larger play.
- Use opposition and criticism as contrast that clarifies your own truth.
- Respond with understanding, not hatred; resistance can serve growth and visibility.
