What is the responsibility of love?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Love is not a duty; it is the very essence of responsibility, flowing freely and intelligently when we drop the burdens of obligation."

According to Osho, love has no separate responsibility; love itself is responsibility. When love is alive, care, sensitivity, and right action arise spontaneously, not from duty, guilt, or moral 'shoulds'. Separating love and responsibility turns care into burden and slavery. Drop mind-made duties and let living love respond to life directly, freely, and intelligently.
Real love takes care by itself—you don’t need rules or guilt to make you do the right thing.
Why this matters practically
- Replaces guilt-driven duty with joyful, natural care.
- Helps you act wisely and freely in relationships, beyond rigid rules.
- Reduces stress by aligning action with authentic feeling, not social pressure.
