According to Osho, you recognize the awakened not by outer signs but by your own living hunger for truth. If you truly thirst, their presence quenches it: chaos settles, silence arises, something within harmonizes and a new being is born. Without authentic appetite, scriptures and conditioning mislead; with it, your inner satisfaction becomes the only reliable criterion.
If you really want truth, an awakened person makes you feel peaceful, clear, and satisfied inside—no outer labels needed.
