What kind of group would Mulla Nasrudin run if he came to the ashram?

True learning arises not from answers, but from the silence that follows the questions we dare not ask.

— Osho
According to Osho, if Mulla Nasrudin ran a group, it would be a Sufi device that unteaches: he would ask if they know, confound every answer, and finally walk away—insisting only silence can learn. His group dissolves the teacher’s role, exposes participants’ greedy yes, cynical no, and clever half-half minds, leaving true work to silence and simple sharing.

He’d run a playful trick that makes you quiet—if you claim to know or not know, he leaves—so you discover only a silent, open heart can learn.
