What is the source of sweetness in the speech of saints?

The sweetness in a saint's speech flows from the Divine, as they become a hollow bamboo, allowing God's breath to create a melody that nourishes the soul.

— Osho
According to Osho, the sweetness (rasa) in a saint’s speech comes solely from the Divine—the only source of rasa. A true saint has vanished as a ‘me’ and becomes a hollow bamboo, a flute through which God breathes. Because their words are not personal but God’s flow, nectar pours, flowers of feeling bloom, and seekers taste reassurance from that living presence.

Saints’ words are sweet because they let God speak through them, not their ego.
