What is the nature of shaktipat and its relation to egolessness?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"True shaktipat dissolves the ego, revealing that the less you cling to the "me," the more the divine transmission can flow through you."
According to Osho, shaktipat is a real awakening force operating on the spiritual plane, not a hypnotic or psychic projection. Its touch dissolves ego; the less the “me,” the more transmission flows. Counterfeit shaktipat mimics effects—visions, sounds, by‑the‑book chakras—yet strengthens ego. The test: authentic transmission births silence, simplicity, and irreversible transformation, not scripted experiences.
Real shaktipat wakes you up by softening your ‘I,’ while fake versions just make you dream with your eyes open.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you avoid being misled by hypnotic, ego-boosting experiences.
- Guides you to value inner silence and transformation over visions.
- Encourages humility and surrender so true energy can work.
