According to Osho, salvation happens the moment a seeker becomes a true disciple: in surrender the ego drops, the barrier dissolves, and you discover you were always saved. The master doesn’t save you; surrender does—love does. The master is a catalytic excuse for dropping ego; even a pseudo-master can suffice, and sometimes the disciple’s surrender even ‘saves’ the master.
Let go of your ego in love and trust, and you’re free already—the master just helps you let go.
