Ask Osho!

How can we be open and loving to tense individuals?

Synthesized from Source practice

"When others are tense, do not mirror their tension; remain centered in love, for your relaxed presence can soothe their unease."

According to Osho, when others are tense, don't mirror their tension or get distracted by judging them; stay centered in love. Tension is sickness; they need compassion, understanding, and your relaxed presence. If you truly know love, you can love anyone—especially the tense; your loving attention soothes and helps them, because their unease is conditioned and natural in unfamiliar settings.
Stay calm, be kind, and remember their fuss means they need your warmth, not your fear.
Why this matters practically
- Stops you from absorbing others’ anxiety
- Turns hard moments into opportunities to soothe and connect
- Trains steady attention: stay with your purpose instead of reacting
