Is the Master both Brahman and death at the same time?

“

The Master is both the fire that consumes your ego and the essence of Brahman; in surrendering to this death, your true, deathless nature is revealed.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
Core Insight:
According to Osho, the Master is both death and Brahman: he is the purifying fire that kills the ego, hopes, and will that keep you false, so your real, deathless nature reveals itself. Coming to a true Master means surrendering to be erased; in that dying, the Great Life—Brahman—awakens and shines.
A real Master burns away your fake self so the real you—Brahman—can appear.
Why this matters practically
- Choose surrender over will-power; drop hopes for worldly gain.
- Welcome the 'death' of ego as healing, not loss.
- Seek guidance that dissolves you, not promises and miracles.
