Core Insight:
According to Osho, swinging between sexual indulgence and celibacy is the mind's pendulum: each extreme fuels the other, creating a subtle vicious circle. Indulgence breeds frustration; repression dams energy until it explodes in fantasies and relapse. Freedom comes by learning the middle way - natural, simple responsiveness - neither indulgent nor repressive. Resting in the center stills the pendulum; the mind's time-bound compulsions cease.
