Ask Osho!

Can psychic binding between the meditator and the medium in shaktipat be detrimental or helpful for the meditator?

Synthesized from Source outcome

"All ties impede freedom; true growth lies in embracing creative insecurity and walking alone, free from the bindings of attachment."

According to Osho, psychic binding between meditator and shaktipat medium is harmful: all ties impede freedom, and subtle, faith-based bonds are worst. A true medium won’t bind; the seeker must stay alert to fear-driven clinging and the lure of security. Accept help only as a temporary support; express gratitude—non-binding and liberating—then walk alone, growing fearless in creative insecurity.
Don’t cling to the giver in shaktipat—be grateful, take the help, then stand on your own feet.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents dependence on teachers or systems.
- Builds courage by seeing and dropping fear-based security seeking.
- Uses support briefly, then practices self-reliance and inner freedom.
