Buddham Saranam Gacchami Osho 〈2025-2026〉

Raghava frowned. “I, the seeker, go to the Buddha, the awakened one.”

With that, the ferryman waded deeper into the river and vanished beneath the dark water — leaving no ripple, no trace. buddham saranam gacchami osho

Just then, an old ferryman approached, his face weathered but eyes sparkling like a child’s. He carried no scriptures, no malas. He simply smiled. Raghava frowned

The ferryman stepped into the river. The water touched his ankles, then his knees. He turned and said: He carried no scriptures, no malas

And in that emptiness, for the first time, he understood:

“Next time you chant Buddham Saranam Gacchami , do not send your words outward. Let them fall inward — like a pebble into still water. Let the sound dissolve the chanter. Let ‘Raghava’ disappear. Then you will see: there is no one going anywhere. There is only Buddham — the awakened quality — already here, already home. That is the refuge. Not a shelter from suffering, but the realization that the sufferer never existed.”

“So… what should I do?” he whispered.
