Ask Osho!

What do you find stupid about sex?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Our obsession with sex is not the act itself, but the unconscious chase for fulfillment in another, which keeps us blind to our own being. Only through awareness and meditation can we transform this energy and see the true nature of our desires."

According to Osho, sex itself isn’t stupid—our unconscious obsession with it is. Conditioned by priests’ condemnation, we chase the ‘other’ for fulfillment, using sex to avoid facing ourselves. This keeps us ignorant and endlessly frustrated, mistaking beggary for a kingdom. Only by rising in awareness through meditation can we gain perspective, see its stupidity, and transform the energy.
Sex isn’t bad, but using it to escape yourself and expecting others to complete you is foolish—become more aware to see clearly.
Why this matters practically
- Redirects focus from chasing others to knowing yourself, easing frustration.
- Encourages meditation to gain perspective and transform sexual energy.
- Builds healthier, more conscious relationships instead of dependency.
