Who beholds the soul and how can the Self behold the Self?

In true realization, the seer and the seen vanish, revealing only the pure light of awareness that shines without needing to illuminate anything else.

— Osho
According to Osho, no one beholds the soul as an object; in true realization the seer and the seen vanish, and only pure seeing remains. The Self "beholds" itself not by knowing something other, but by self-luminous awareness, like a lamp that shines whether or not it illuminates objects. Language fails here: it is immediate, objectless presence.

When the soul is known, there’s no viewer and nothing to see—awareness just shines by itself, like a lamp glowing in an empty room.
