Thanks for writing this, it clarifies a lot. This distinction about being in love versus being loved is really insightful. I'm curious about the 'sacrifice and risk' you mention. When Naval says we pursue truth, love, and beauty after material needs, is that sacrifice an inherent, perhaps even neccesary, component of that pursuit itself?
It's pretentious and not actually true. But then again that's what Osho counts on - people just liking what they hear and not thinking too deeply about it.

I would think it's risky (or feels risky) in the sense that you become vulnerable to another person...
I love this quote, beautifully articulated! "Courage is a love affair with the unknown." - Osho
I thought the same!
