"Real love grants freedom; when the ego feels threatened, it reveals its possessiveness and jealousy. Set clear boundaries for your inner search, and if freedom is denied, confront it courageously or walk away."
According to Osho, when a husband connects with a spiritual teacher, the marriage’s hidden possessiveness surfaces: the partner’s ego feels displaced, jealousy erupts, and tactics of control appear—mockery, forbidding satsang, even burning books. The teacher isn’t the issue; threatened ego is. Real love grants freedom. So set clear boundaries for your inner search—and if freedom is denied, confront courageously or walk away.
If a husband follows a spiritual guide, the spouse may feel left out and try to stop it—but real love lets each other be free.
