Ask Osho!

What remains of love when jealousy, possessiveness, attachment, needs, expectations, desires, and illusions are removed?

Synthesized from Source outcome

"When all that is not love—jealousy, possessiveness, and expectations—falls away, what remains is the pure essence of love itself: a spontaneous, egoless flow that is your very being."

According to Osho, when jealousy, possessiveness, attachment, expectations, and desires vanish, nothing of your 'love' remains—because the ego that claimed it disappears. What remains is love itself: an egoless, unconditional, spontaneous flow, your very being, like breathing. Love is not learned or manufactured; it reveals itself the moment the obstacles of unlove are removed.
Take away all the clinging and fear, and the ‘me’ drops; then love shines by itself, as natural as breathing.
Why this matters practically
- Stop trying to ‘learn’ love; remove jealousy, possessiveness, and expectations instead.
- See ego reactions as obstacles—not love—and let them pass.
- Relate non-possessively so connection can breathe and deepen without control.
