Core Insight:
According to Osho, love is the food of the soul—our inborn, overflowing essence present at birth. It withers under possessiveness, jealousy, domination, and disrespect, which society and unloving parents transmit. Because love is fragile, it must be protected, watered, and strengthened through awareness and respect. Real love is not an idea or performance but a living nourishment that lets the soul be born and thrive.
