Do you become Krishna when you speak about him?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"You do not become Krishna by speaking of him; you realize that his essence is already your own being, flowing from the same consciousness."
According to Osho, one does not 'become' Krishna; becoming implies separation. In awakened awareness, the essence of Krishna is already one's own being. Thus the question of becoming doesn’t arise—speaking about Krishna flows from the same consciousness, not from imitation. His point: realize your original nature; drop striving to be someone else, and rest in the presence that you already are.
Why this matters practically
- Ends imitation and comparison, allowing authentic living now.
- Encourages meditation to recognize innate divinity rather than chasing ideals.
- Reduces anxiety from striving; actions flow naturally from presence.
