What is the nature of communication with spiritual figures like Christ, Buddha, or Krishna?

definition
"True communication with the divine transcends names and images; it is an immersion in a formless presence that defies cultural conditioning and mind-made projections."
According to Osho, in ninety‑nine out of a hundred cases, “communications” with Christ, Buddha, or Krishna are mind-made projections shaped by one’s cultural conditioning. Authentic contact is exceedingly rare and comes without any image: a formless, overwhelming presence in which you are immersed. Names like Jesus or Krishna are merely symbols we apply afterward to a nameless, universal descent of the divine.
Most holy visions are your mind replaying what you learned; real connection feels like a quiet, formless presence with no picture at all.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you stop chasing images and focus on deep, image-free awareness.
- Reduces sectarian bias by pointing to a shared presence beyond names.
- Cultivates discernment and humility in spiritual practice.
