Is love the most important event of life?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Love is not an event; it is the very essence of life, the force that dissolves the ego and awakens the Divine within us."
According to Osho, love is not merely an event but life itself - the essence and quintessence of being; without it, existence is a slow suicide. When love dawns, ego dissolves, silence becomes prayer, and the Divine dances within. Lovers awaken humanity's sleeping caravan and give birth to prophets and mad saints who can declare, 'Aham Brahmasmi - Ana'l-Haq'.
Love isn’t a moment that happens to life; it is what makes life real, melting the ego so the Divine can be felt now.
Why this matters practically
- Shift priorities from achievements to cultivating loving awareness.
- Practice ego-softening acts (kindness, silence, gratitude) to feel more alive.
- Let love guide decisions, awakening courage, creativity, and compassion.
