"I am not interested at all in converting anybody to my ideology – I don’t have any. Secondly, I believe that the very effort to convert anybody is violence; it is interfering in his individuality, in his uniqueness, into his freedom. So my function is not that of a teacher, not that of a prophet, not that of a savior, not that of a messenger. My function simply is that of a reminder. I want to be just a mirror to you so that you can see your original face.
And if you can see a Buddha in me, there is no difficulty in seeing the buddha in you too – maybe a little lazy, a little sleepy, a little gone off the track. But a buddha is a buddha. It does not matter whether his nuts and bolts are a little loose, we will fix them. One’s Buddhahood is one’s essential nature." - Osho
