"The true farewell of a master is a wake-up slap that shatters your ego, urging you to drop your ambitions and awaken to your own awareness rather than worshipping authority."
According to Osho, a true master’s ‘last words’ would be a shock that explodes disciples’ egos and prevents any pious cult—like Gurdjieff’s tale where the dying buddha whispers, “Fuck you.” The real farewell is a wake-up slap: don’t cling, don’t crown successors, drop ambition, and be alert to your own awareness rather than worshipping authority.
He’d say something startling to pop our ego balloon so we stop clinging to him and wake up ourselves.
Why this matters practically
- Exposes hidden ambition and need for authority.
- Encourages self-reliance in awareness, not guru-worship.
- Keeps teachings alive by avoiding rigid institutions.
