What is the spiritual significance of sleep?

Sleep is not a fall from spirituality; it is as sacred as awareness, a necessary part of existence that nurtures our inner growth and wholeness.

— Osho
According to Osho, sleep is not a fall from spirituality but part of it; there is no sin in sleep, it is as spiritual as awareness. Existence includes rest and wakefulness; both are sacred. Dropping guilt about sleep restores balance, relaxes striving, and lets natural rhythms support inner growth and wholeness.

Sleeping is just as holy as being awake and aware, so don’t feel bad—rest helps you grow too.
