What is the law of giving and receiving in love?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"What you give in love returns to you multiplied; focus on the roses, accept the thorns, and continue to pour your love, for it is the essence of true intimacy."
According to Osho, love obeys a simple law of resonance: what you offer returns to you multiplied. When you pour love, it comes back a thousandfold; when closeness deepens, even rough edges—insults, thorns—are just signs of intimacy, not reasons to recoil. Keep your attention on the roses, accept the few thorns, and remember people can give only from their present understanding—so keep giving love.
Give love freely and you’ll get much more back; don’t let small hurts stop you.
Why this matters practically
- Choose to keep giving love regardless of small hurts.
- Train attention on the ‘roses’ to stay grateful and calm.
- Accept others’ limits; reduce expectations and resentment.
