Immanuael Kant--People in Osho's Talks

A master is an awakened person who can wake up
the ones who are still sleeping. But it is very
dangerous, because to wake up a sleeping person is
to annoy him. You are disturbing his sleep. He is
enjoying his dreams, he is resting, and you are
unnecessarily harassing him.

Kant, a well known German philosopher, engaged a
servant only for waking him up at four o’clock in the
morning. He was fanatical about getting up in the
early dawn. But he was a type that would become
angry and might even beat the person who tried to
wake him up. So he had a servant to do this job.

Nobody in his family was ready to wake him because
he would abuse and even beat the person who woke
him up. But he had that obsession of getting up at
four o’clock in the morning, so he kept a servant
whose only work was to wake him even if it ended in a
beating. It was his order that even if the servant were
beaten by him, or even if the servant had to give Kant
a beating, he would still wake him at four o’clock...
