“Sex is the lowest rung of the ladder, but it is the ladder. Without the first rung, you cannot reach the second. You can renounce sex, but then you renounce the ladder—and with it, all possibility of growth. Sex is the seed, love is the flower, and compassion is the fragrance. But the seed must be nourished, not denied. Only then can the flower bloom, and the fragrance spread.” – Osho From “From Sex to Superconsciousness“
Osho encourages us not to bypass sex in our pursuit of spirituality or personal growth. He understood sexual energy as a starting point for transformation—not a shameful detour. For the HaPenis Project, this legitimizes the erotic as a gateway to deeper connection, creativity, and even transcendence. Male sexuality becomes not something to suppress or control, but to nurture with reverence and curiosity.
