"Drop the abstract idea of God and immerse yourself in genuine love; it is through love that the divine reveals itself and true thirst awakens."
According to Osho, you lack thirst for God because 'God' is an abstract idea you haven't encountered; authentic longing can't be manufactured. Drop the word and begin with real, tangible love—for people, nature, a master. By plunging totally into genuine love, glimpses of the divine arise on their own, and true thirst naturally awakens, deepens, and guides you.
You don’t feel like knowing God because it’s just a word to you—start by truly loving someone or life, and the real desire for the bigger mystery will grow by itself.
