Is it possible to develop intelligence and feeling together while practicing meditation and devotion?

Begin from your natural strength, for whether you fill yourself with the Divine through devotion or empty yourself through meditation, all authentic paths ultimately converge in the same ocean of wholeness.

— Osho
According to Osho, wholeness unites sharp intelligence, deep feeling, and action—but that is the goal, not the starting point. Begin from your natural strength: if devotion suits you, fill yourself with the Divine; if meditation suits you, empty yourself. The path is necessarily one-sided, yet all authentic paths meet in the same ocean. As you near the goal, the other dimensions awaken and integration happens.

You can’t grow both equally at first; pick the way that fits you—love or silence—and the rest will join later.
