According to Osho, one becomes a disciple through understanding grounded in self-trust and courage—not fear, imitation, or cunning knowledge. The disciple seeks truth even if it brings insecurity, embraces challenge, and enters a loving, alive relationship with the master. Understanding is the key, and genuine love naturally flowers from it; both arise from dropping fear.
It’s understanding that comes from trusting yourself and being brave, and from that real love grows—not fear like a sheep or cleverness like a fox.
