Ask Osho!

What is the nature of love and trust in a spiritual relationship?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Love in a spiritual relationship is an unprovoked flowering of the heart, where the 'I' disappears and trust becomes the natural fragrance of that love."

According to Osho, love in a spiritual relationship is causeless and without motive—an unprovoked flowering of the heart that the mind’s “why” can never grasp. It is greater than you; when it comes, the ‘I’ disappears, giving a first glimpse of the divine. Trust then is not reasoning or bargain, but the natural fragrance of love when the mind yields to the heart.
Love is like sunshine that just shines for no reason, and when you stand in it, you stop thinking and simply trust.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you drop overthinking and conditions in your relationships.
- Encourages surrender of ego, creating deeper intimacy and peace.
- Shifts focus from controlling to trusting presence with your partner and life.
