Is the need in sadhana only for the catharsis of our tendencies, or is there also a place for repression?

In sadhana, there is no place for repression; only conscious catharsis can unveil the divine that lies within. Allow your energies to surface and be emptied, for it is through this release that you discover your true self.

— Osho
