"Love is not a possession; it is an expansive energy that flows freely to all, transcending boundaries and limitations. Maturity in love means embracing many relationships, not clinging to just one."
According to Osho, yes—love is not a scarce commodity or an exclusive contract; it is an inclusive state of being. True love expands through one to all, releasing energy toward people, trees, birds, the sky. Measuring 'more' or 'less' and possessiveness suffocate love. Maturity means many relationships and openness, not fixation on one.
You can love many people because real love is like sunshine—sharing it doesn’t reduce it; trying to own it makes it fade.
