What is the nature of duality in the mind?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"The mind is duality; every love carries hate, and every trust carries doubt. Embrace both sides—flowers and thorns—and in radical authenticity, duality dissolves into a profound surrender."
According to Osho, the mind itself is duality—incapable of being total—so every love carries hate, every trust carries doubt. Denying one pole breeds hypocrisy. Expose and surrender both sides—flowers and thorns—to the master. In such radical authenticity, duality drops; you let go of both trust and distrust, and a nondual, real surrender spontaneously arises.
Your mind always has two sides; show both honestly and let them go, and peace appears.
