Is spiritual love possible in a flawed world?

“

Love is not divided into spiritual and material; it is simply love, blossoming through the acceptance of our embodied existence. Embrace your body as the temple of God, and love will naturally arise, transcending all flaws.

Core Insight:
According to Osho, spiritual love is absolutely possible—because love is simply love, not “spiritual” versus “material.” The world isn’t rotten; only the conditioned mind is. Love flowers through embodied sharing: honoring the body—the temple of God—as the bridge to the beyond. Drop body-condemnation, accept your embodied being, and love naturally arises and deepens into the ultimate.
Don’t hate your body—share yourself kindly and fully, and love will happen, even here.
Why this matters practically
- Ends the false split between spiritual and material, easing guilt and confusion in love.
- Promotes body-acceptance, touch, and presence—creating a real climate for love.
- Uses the body as a bridge to deeper consciousness so love matures instead of being repressed.
