What defines a great man?

Greatness is an illusion; the only true distinction lies in being awake or asleep, aware or unaware. Embrace your ordinariness and focus on your own awakening.

— Osho
According to Osho, no one is inherently 'great'; hero-worship is a distortion that shrinks you. He calls himself utterly ordinary. The only distinction is being awake versus asleep—awareness versus unawareness—but that confers neither superiority nor inferiority. Drop the idea of greatness, stop projecting heroes, and turn attention to your own awakening and ordinariness.

There are no great men—just people more or less awake; so don’t worship anyone, wake up yourself.
