Ask Osho!

Why are religions generally against sex, and why is this perspective different in some teachings?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Religions condemn sex to instill guilt and fear, diverting our vital energy into ambition and obedience; yet when embraced consciously, sex can transform into a doorway to love and enlightenment."

Some say sex is bad to control you, but it’s natural, and if you meet it with love and awareness it can lead you to calm, happy inner peace.
Why this matters practically
- Drop sexual guilt to reduce anxiety and manipulation.
- Channel love and awareness in intimacy to deepen meditation.
- Avoid replacing unmet love with ambition or hoarding.
