What is the meaning of the question, 'Why do you want to wound yourself?'

According to Osho, the master’s question 'Why do you want to wound yourself?' warns that authentic inquiry before a satguru pierces the ego, shatters secondhand knowledge, and begins the disciple’s dying. These 'wounds' are the painful cuts that dissolve the false personality; only the courageous should ask. Emptiness comes first, flowers later—and the master speaks only of wounds to prevent greedy bargaining for rewards.
