What is money and why do people feel uncomfortable about it?

Money is not just currency; it reveals our fears of intimacy and vulnerability, transforming from a master into a mere tool when understood.

— Osho
According to Osho, money isn’t merely currency; it symbolizes our love of things over persons, a flight from intimacy, a false security against death, and a will to control life. We feel uneasy about it because it exposes these fears: closeness, sharing, and vulnerability. Attachment makes us closed and possessive; both hoarding and renouncing are the same neurosis. With understanding, money becomes a tool, not a master.

Money isn’t just coins—it shows how we hide from loving people to feel safe, so it scares us; use it as a tool, don’t let it own your heart.
