Is there any justification in Indra appointing a deity to watch over Mahavira despite being told to fight his own battle with karma?

According to Osho, the battle with karma is utterly solitary; no ally, human or divine, can truly assist. Indra's 'appointment' of a guardian is a mythic symbol: when one stands alone, even gods long to help. Yet the authentic seeker must decline every support, because accepting exposes a hidden craving for company and derails inner freedom.

Even if a god offers help, it only shows that support appears when you truly stand alone—still, you must not take it, because this journey has to be done by yourself.
