Ask Osho!

How can I accept two masters while wanting to become a sannyasin?

Synthesized from Source practice

"True surrender is not to two masters, but to the one truth they all embody; in surrendering your heart, you deepen your communion with the source of all."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, there are not two masters to accept; the issue is surrender. True surrender is to the one truth all masters embody; then Christ, Buddha, Krishna, and a living master are the same finger pointing to one moon. If your heart surrenders, becoming a sannyasin does not betray Christ—in fact, it deepens your communion with the same source.
Don’t worry about choosing between teachers—give your heart to truth, and you’ll find real teachers are on the same team.
Why this matters practically
- Reduces inner conflict and guilt when exploring new paths.
- Encourages commitment to living guidance without abandoning your roots.
- Keeps focus on surrender and transformation, not labels or doctrines.
