Why does love have no rules?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Love is not a game with rules; it is the very essence of existence, a natural union with the Divine that flows freely and unconditionally."
According to Osho, love has no rules because only games require rules, and true love is not a game but our natural union with the Divine. Rules belong to social contracts like marriage; love is existence expressing itself, like a tree arising from the earth. Being intrinsic and inevitable, it cannot be managed, broken, or kept; it is its own law, and from it prayer naturally flowers.
Real love is like a tree growing from the earth—it happens by itself, so it doesn’t need made-up rules.
