somebody to lean on, this whole nonsense continues.
But you are both growing, and you both have to take more courageous steps. If there really is love then love wants that everything else should be sacrificed. Make it a deliberate, conscious effort of sacrifice. If you cannot sacrifice those foolish things please don't say that you love, because then it is meaningless. Only your sacrifice will prove that you love.
And what am I asking that you sacrifice? Anger, hatred, jealousy, this and that -- all nonsense! If you cannot sacrifice even these things, then what else can you sacrifice? People say sometimes that they are ready to die for the other, but they cannot drop a little thing like anger... and they are ready to die! It doesn't seem possible. They are just fooling around with the idea, because who is going to ask you to die?
So make it a point: sacrifice all nonsense. And if you cannot, sacrifice love. Be courageous either way.
For one month both try to sacrifice all nonsense. And if you cannot, after one month tell me how things are. Then separate. It is not good to destroy each other continuously. Let her be with somebody else -- she may be happy -- and you may be happy with somebody else. Why destroy both lives?
But I don't see that there is any need to separate. I am making it clear so that you know what you have to sacrifice, so you don't hope in a wrong direction. I am making the situation completely hopeless so things become clear. For one month both sacrifice for love.
And remember, I am not saying that you have to ask him to sacrifice, or he has to ask you to sacrifice, because that is not sacrifice. You are not to ask him to sacrifice. You are not to say to him, 'Osho has said -- now sacrifice.' (laughter) That is for him! [He] will do his work -- you have to do your work, otherwise you will go home and you will say, 'Now...!' (laughter) I'm not saying that!
After one month, come again, then we will see, mm? Good!
