What is the significance of seers in spiritual lineage?

Seers are the living current of consciousness, tasting the unknowable and renewing the fragrance of spirituality, keeping the mystery alive beyond the confines of intellect and dogma.

— Osho
According to Osho, seers (rishis) are an unbroken, living current: wherever human consciousness is, they arise. They don’t derive truth by logic or grammar; they taste the unknowable and sing it. Touching the ocean without possessing it, they renew religion’s living fragrance, keep mystery alive, and save spirituality from sterile intellect and boredom—thus sustaining the perennial lineage beyond books and systems.

Seers keep appearing to share a living taste of the mystery beyond thinking, keeping real spirituality fresh and alive.
