Ask Osho!

How can we build up and retain energy, and what are the ways we lose it?

Synthesized from Source practice

"Energy is inexhaustible; it flows when you remember your infinite nature, share generously, and remain lovingly active. Hoarding and inactivity only drain you, while action invites renewal."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, energy is inexhaustible because you are a wave of the infinite; you “lose” it only by forgetting this and by hoarding, inactivity, and the belief that action drains you. Remember your Brahman-nature, stay lovingly active, share what you have, and energy renews—like leaves drawing water by transpiring. Use body, love, and compassion; using invites fresh supply, miserliness and passivity wither it.
Keep moving, loving, and sharing while remembering you’re connected to endless energy; you run low only when you hoard, stay idle, or believe you’re limited.
Why this matters practically
- Turns activity into a source of renewal, not depletion.
- Reduces belief-based fatigue and fear-driven hoarding.
- Encourages daily generosity and engagement to stay in energetic flow.
