"Truth arises from direct experience, not from comforting stories about what could have been. Embrace the unknown rather than filling it with speculation."
According to Osho, questions like whether Ramakrishna gave Vivekananda a samadhi glimpse to ease future suffering are mere 'it-could-be-so' speculations. Drop hypotheticals; inquire only into what is directly known. If you don’t know, admit not-knowing rather than patching it with stories. Truth comes from immediate awareness and experience, not comforting explanations about the past.
Don’t make up stories about saints; if you don’t know, say so, and look for truth in your own direct experience now.
