Ask Osho!

What is the role of a master in guiding individuals?

Synthesized from Source definition

"A master is not a leader to be followed, but a friend who points to the peak; it is your journey to walk, creating your own path through understanding and maturity."

According to Osho, a master is not a leader but a friend and guide to be understood, not followed. He shares his experience and indicates the path to the peak, yet insists you walk your own unique way. No ready-made routes, no dependence; by moving you create the path, and through understanding you mature into truth.
A true master doesn’t make you follow him; he helps you find your own way and stand on your own feet.
