According to Osho, there are no women masters because masterhood demands an outward, aggressive energy, while the feminine nature is essentially receptive, a ‘womb’ best suited for deep discipleship. The master‑disciple dynamic mirrors man‑woman polarity: men more often embody the initiating force; women, the receptive depth. Hence history shows many great women disciples, but male masters.
Osho says being a master needs pushy, initiating energy, while women naturally receive and thus become excellent disciples rather than masters.
