Core Insight:
According to Osho, devotion is the feminine path because meeting God requires the posture of the Beloved—receptivity, surrender, trust, softness—rather than assertion. Every person contains both man and woman; on bhakti one must awaken the inner woman. This ripening allows the inner masculine and feminine to unite (yuganaddha), ending inner division; hence the lover-devotee’s primary signs are ‘feminine’ qualities, regardless of biological sex.
