Can one reach enlightenment directly without sexuality?

definition
"Only truth leads to truth; meet your sexuality consciously, for understanding it is the path to authentic brahmacharya, while repression only deepens obsession."
According to Osho, you cannot bypass sexuality to attain truth: only truth leads to truth. If sex is a living fact for you, meet it consciously, understand it, and through that understanding authentic brahmacharya flowers; imposed celibacy is hypocrisy that deepens obsession. Begin where you actually are; awareness transforms desire, repression only diverts it and blocks real awakening.
Be honest about your sexual energy and understand it with awareness; pretending it’s not there only makes it stronger.
Why this matters practically
- Replaces repression with understanding, reducing obsession.
- Prevents spiritual hypocrisy by starting from honest self-knowledge.
- Lets inner peace and natural celibacy arise through awareness.
