"When you feel compassion, love, or playfulness, remember that the true blessing is your own flowering; in giving, you bloom, and in receiving, you are given the chance to grow."
According to Osho, when compassion, love, or playfulness arise toward others, remember the real blessing is your own flowering. Be grateful when someone receives it—they’ve given you a chance to bloom. Drop the holier-than-thou ego; love can even suffocate if used to serve your pride. Let your giving and receiving be natural, without the sense of ‘I’, like a flower releasing fragrance.
These feelings help you grow; thank others for letting you share them, don’t act superior, and let them flow without ego.
Why this matters practically
- Cultivates gratitude and dissolves ego-driven “do-gooder” behavior.
- Prevents smothering others with possessive love; respects their freedom.
- Turns daily interactions into inner growth by giving and receiving without “I.”
