Osho on When does the disciple's freedom become his master's condemnation?

When does the disciple's freedom become his master's condemnation?

A true disciple finds freedom in the master, while the false disciple's ego seeks to condemn; the authentic master only responds with laughter and compassion.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
If you haven’t really united with your teacher, your ego will call rebellionfreedom’ and then blame the teacher; in true discipleship, freedom and the master are one, so there’s nothing to condemn.
Why this matters practically
- Check whether your “freedom” is ego-defense or authentic growth.
- Choose guidance that expands your freedom; avoid teachers who hinder it.
- Take responsibility for resistance instead of blaming the guide.
