Core Insight:
According to Osho, inner voices from society and teachings must first be countered with a conscious 'thorn'—a master's words—to uproot old conditioning, then even that aid must be dropped. Respect the guide, but don't carry the raft. Ultimately, free yourself from all borrowed voices so a wordless, unclinging awareness—no-mind—remains. This 'kill the Buddha' courage is the highest respect.
