Is being attracted to Krishna the same as being free of life’s other attractions?

To be attracted to Krishna is not to escape life's attractions, but to discover the Divine within them and transform desire into a sacred experience.

— Osho
According to Osho, being drawn to Krishna is not escaping life’s attractions; it is discovering Krishna within them and consecrating them to the Divine. Unlike Mahavira’s renunciation (non-taste), Krishna teaches supreme relish—go so deep that taste becomes Brahman. With right seeing, the world reveals itself as the Divine; thus attraction is transformed, not abandoned.

No—Krishna invites you to look so deeply into what attracts you that it turns into a doorway to God, rather than something to run from.
