According to Osho, shaktipat only breeds dependence when it hardens into the roles of ‘guru’ and ‘disciple.’ Then it becomes power-politics. If, instead, the helper is seen as ‘your own form gone a few steps ahead,’ there are not two—the support simply awakens your inherent capacity. Refuse the identities of guru and disciple; take help, remember your own source, and walk on.
Getting a boost is fine, but don’t make the booster your boss—see them as you, just a bit ahead, so you learn to stand on your own.
