Ask Osho!

How can I overcome my reluctance to allow my husband to participate in Sufi meditation?

Synthesized from Source practice

"True love is not possessive; it is the trust that allows the beloved to explore their own path, for in freedom, love blossoms and the Divine reveals itself."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, your reluctance springs from fear and possessiveness masquerading as love. Love and fear cannot coexist; true love is trust, reverence, and freedom. If you truly love, you will bless his search—including Sufi meditation—seeing the Divine in him, not guarding him. Drop surveillance and insecurity; let love flower, and both of you move closer to the Divine.
Trust him and his Sufi meditation; real love lets go of control and fear so you both can grow.
Why this matters practically
- Reduces jealousy and anxiety in the relationship.
- Builds trust and respect, deepening intimacy.
- Supports each partner’s authentic spiritual growth.
