According to Osho, gazing into ordinary people’s eyes for more than a few seconds feels intrusive because the eyes are their most private, expressive doorway. But with a master, the gaze is pure: his eyes are empty, mirror-like, projecting nothing and reflecting you. Such contact becomes communion, dissolving fear and allowing his clarity to transmit through you.
Staring at most people feels invasive, but a true master’s eyes act like a mirror that calmly shows you yourself.
