Does a devotee ever quarrel with God?

The quarrel of a devotee with God is not a conflict, but a profound expression of love; in the depths of longing, even complaints become a sweet prayer that deepens devotion.

— Osho
According to Osho, only the devotee truly quarrels with God—and that quarrel is love itself. Where there is love, there is no fear; honest complaint, lament, even exasperation, become modes of prayer. Lovers fight and grow closer; so does the devotee. His protests arise from longing for union, and their sweetness deepens devotion rather than betraying it.

Yes—when you really love God, you can cry, complain, and argue, and it still counts as prayer because it comes from deep longing.
