According to Osho, you cannot approach a master without compromise: coming close means accepting discipleship—dropping arguments, obeying, and allowing your ego to be dissolved, perhaps through long silence and tests, as with Junnaid and Al-Hillaj. If you refuse compromise, don't come close; walk alone and pay the price of solitary struggle. You can't have both.
If you want a real teacher, you must listen and let go of stubbornness; if not, go alone and accept a longer, harder path.
