What is the role of a leader in a social scheme?

A true leader is not a final authority but a catalyst for ongoing revolution, ready to dismantle his own creation when it becomes stagnant. Leadership thrives in the flow of life, preventing systems from becoming dead orthodoxy.

— Osho
According to Osho, a leader in any social scheme is not a final authority but a catalyst for ongoing revolution. The moment a movement succeeds, it starts forming vested interests; a true leader must encourage continual questioning and be ready to oppose—even dismantle—his own creation once it ossifies. Leadership serves life’s flow by preventing systems from becoming dead orthodoxy.

A real leader keeps change alive, even if it means undoing his own success when it turns rigid.
