OSHO: I Always Thought that I Loved Somebody

OSHO TALKS: silence shared in words OSHO International Foundation presents I Always Thought That I Loved Somebody The basic fallacy that you are carrying within you is that you always loved somebody. This is one of the most significant things about all human beings; their love is always for somebody, it is addressed -- and the moment you address your love you destroy it. It is as if you are saying: "I will breath only for you... and when you are not there... then how can I breathe?" Love should be like breathing; it should be just a quality in you -- wherever you are, with whomsoever you are or even if you are alone love goes on overflowing in you. It is not a question of being in love with someone -- it is a question of being love. People are frustrated in their love experiences, not because something is wrong with love; they narrow down love to such a point that the ocean of love cannot remain there. You cannot contain the ocean -- it is not a small stream. Love is your whole being; love is your godliness. One should think in terms of "Whether I am loving or not?" The question of the object of love does not arise. With your wife you love your wife; with your children you love your children; with your servants you love your servants; with your friends you love your friends; with the trees you love the trees; with the ocean you love the ocean. You are love. Love is not dependent on the object but, is a radiation of your subjectivity, is a radiation of your soul; and vaster the radiation the greater is your soul. The more widespread the wings of your love the bigger is the sky of your being. Anand Tosha, you have lived under a common fallacy of all human beings and now you are asking "Am I able to love you?" Again the same fallacy. Just ask "Am I able to become love?" When you are in my presence, you need not think of loving me; otherwise, you have not come out of your ordinary fallacies. Here you have to learn... just be loving. Of course your love will reach to me too; it will reach to others too. It will be a vibe surrounding you, spreading all over and if so many people are simply broadcasting their love, their song, their ecstasy the whole place becomes a temple. There is no other way of making a temple. Then the whole area... is filled with a new kind of energy, and nobody is at a loss because on you is showering the love of so many people; on each single person so many people's love is showering. Drop that fallacy. And because of that fallacy another question arises in you: "... or has life brought me to the point where happiness in love does not happen anymore?" Life is nothing but an opportunity for love to blossom. If you are alive the opportunity is there -- even to the last breath. You may have missed your whole life; just the last breath, the last moment on the earth, if you can be love, you have not missed anything... because a single moment of love is equal to the whole eternity of love.
