What kind of questions should a disciple ask?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"A true disciple does not ask questions from the mind; instead, he drinks deeply from the silence of the heart, where the master's truth becomes his own."
According to Osho, a true disciple does not ask mind-made questions; he drinks. Questions arise from the head, but answers happen in the heart. The disciple’s ‘question’ is a silent, loving quest—openness, gratitude, and nearness to the master—where inquiry gives way to receptivity, and in shared silence the master’s truth becomes the disciple’s own.
Don’t ask with your head; be quietly loving and open near the master so your heart can receive the answer.
