Ask Osho!

Osho fundamentally shattered standard definitions, asserting that even if samadhi and brahmacharya prevail, children will still be born—but not as accidental by-products of lust. Procreation becomes a conscious, purposeful act: sex is only a vehicle, guided by awareness and love. Such invited children are fewer, better cared for, and born into responsibility, easing overpopulation and transforming the quality of human life.

Osho's perspective on Brahmacharya

"Brahmacharya is not about repression but about understanding and befriending your sexual energy with awareness; when you observe it with compassion, the obsession dissolves and true mastery arises naturally."

Don’t fight or feel guilty about sexual thoughts—watch them kindly and understand them, and they’ll calm down so real celibacy appears naturally.

"When samadhi and brahmacharya prevail, procreation transforms from a mere act of lust into a conscious celebration of love, inviting fewer but more cherished souls into the world."

People in deep awareness would still have kids, but only on purpose and with love, not by accident.

"Only the state of witnessing brings true brahmacharya; awareness, not repression, is what remains at the moment of death."

Stay calmly aware and real celibacy happens by itself—and that same awareness can stay clear even at death.
