What is wrong with marriage?

Marriage is not wrong; it is a mirror reflecting our ego and ignorance, urging us to transcend possessiveness and discover the true essence of love.

— Osho
According to Osho, nothing is inherently wrong with marriage; it’s a necessary human institution that mirrors our ego and ignorance, generates friction, and thereby pushes us toward meditation and transcendence. Treat it as a ladder: learn from its joys and miseries, discover what love is not, and then grow beyond possessiveness and clinging. The only 'wrong' is staying unconscious and attached to the ladder.

Marriage isn’t bad; it’s a teacher—learn from it and don’t cling to it.
