Ask Osho!

What is the concept of a church for non-smelling camels?

Synthesized from Source definition

"A true church is not a structure of beliefs, but a living communion born from the direct relationship between the Master and the seeker."

According to Osho, a true church is not an organization built by disciples but a living communion created by the enlightened Master himself; it begins the moment he initiates even a single seeker. Its essence is the direct, responsible relationship between Master and disciple, not doctrines or tradition—thus preventing the distortions that happened with Peter and Paul after Jesus and preserving the Buddha-like quality.
A real church is the living link started by a Master’s initiation, not a man-made institution or doctrine.
Why this matters practically
- Keeps spirituality alive and undiluted through direct transmission
- Centers your growth on living guidance and responsibility
- Avoids institutional distortions and power struggles
