What is faith?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Faith is the fragrance of love, an intuitive trust that recognizes the unseen Source behind the beauty of existence."
According to Osho, faith is the culmination of love: an intuitive trust that, sensing fragrance before the garden appears, recognizes the unseen Source behind the world’s beauty. It is not argument or cause‑and‑effect, but the inner eye that lets the Divine enter through an unknown lattice. The devotee moves by this felt knowing, accepting that what has not yet occurred will also happen.
Faith is like smelling flowers and hearing birds before seeing the garden, so you trust it’s there and open your heart to it.
