What is love and can it ever be destroyed?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Real love is an eternal flow that cannot be destroyed; it only transforms from the immature to the divine as we embrace life with courage."
According to Osho, love is a rainbow—multidimensional energy ranging from bodily sex (mostly chemistry) to the divine. When fixed at the body it breeds jealousy and fear; when repressed it rots; when allowed to flow it purifies and matures. Social fixes like marriage stabilize but confine it. Real love cannot be destroyed; only its immature forms decay, while true love expands from kama to Rama as we engage life courageously.
Love begins as attraction, but if you let it flow and grow, the shallow parts fade and the real, sacred love remains.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you stop confusing lust and love, reducing jealousy and blame.
- Encourages expression over repression, keeping relationships fresh.
- Turns relationship challenges into a path from fear to the divine.
