According to Osho, attachment to a teacher turns the journey into imitation: you cling to a borrowed persona, act the role, and forget your own being—like an actor who believes he is the character. Real growth is a glad “dying” to the old, not becoming a copy. A true master helps you drop masks, not wear a new one; love the presence, but don’t cling to the person.
Getting attached to a teacher makes you copy their act instead of discovering who you really are.
