What are the responsibilities and limits of a leader, and what are the responsibilities and duties of those who are ruled?

A true leader is not a ruler but a servant, guiding with love and humility, while each individual must embrace their own responsibility, offering service from a place of grace and trust rather than submission to authority.

— Osho
According to Osho, leadership as ruling is a loveless power-trip born of inferiority and has no place in a conscious community. The only legitimate 'leader' is a servant: humble, loving, with no special powers, coordinating without coercion. The 'ruled' should not exist; each person is a responsible, meditative individual—graceful, intelligent, trusting—offering service out of love rather than submitting to hierarchy.

There shouldn’t be bosses and followers; people lovingly help each other, and anyone who organizes does it as service, not control.
