One need to understand what is meant by :
Sex, that becomes ‘the seed’
Love, that becomes ‘the flower’, and
Compassion, that becomes ‘the fragrance’, of one’s journey towards knowing the self or consciousness or answer of ‘Who am i?’ and knowing it means ‘entering the kingdom of God’ for Christians or Krishna/Buddha consciousness for Hindus/Buddhists etc etc.
Each word of great masters is worth a lot lot weight behind it. So one’a inability to understand it may result in understanding wrong message.
How you come to know that your Bodily love-Sex, Mental Love-ie Love and Love of soul is Compassion is true? A mystic Rahim said a couplet in this regard. जे सुलगे ते बुझे नहीं, बुझे ते सुलगे नहीं। रहिमन दाहे प्रेम के, बुझी बुझी के सुलगाहिं means ‘When anything catches fire it burns, once it is completely burned it cannot catch fire again, but those who are burning in true love of God they again and again catches fire after forgetting God by getting involved in the world ie cooling down.’
So true lover fights for this reason and then again unite.
Sex is lowest form of Love, it is passion or love limited to the body. Still it has a glimpse of beyond body experience at orgasm. If both persons engage with totality and to give other the best one can give using whole body arousal then either both will reach to their orgasm together or it may last upto 20+ minutes or both can happen simultaneously. Then one can, for first time, experience of beyond body or being. For a moment mind and body vanishes and pure bliss remains. In bodily love if it is not experienced in whole life even once, then passion overpowers to make life a hell. This is Tantra developed by Tilopa, Milarepa etc in Tibet.
It is called seed because only with this total orgasm experience begins the journey of Tantra meditation, which is best way for liberation in today’s time as per Osho.
Next level of Love is of mind. That is described here too as love. When a person finds himself or herself at peace in presence of another person or at a place like temple/Church etc. It is called flower of the journey because it lasts for much longer duration to embrace its beauty. It takes one deeper into his/her heart. Here if attachment or possessiveness overpowers then it may become a prison. This is why Osho preferred that both partners need to give full freedom to each other. In many cases these experiences may require different partners.
This level of Love is love of souls. Here both gets dissolved to become one, soul itself-since it is same for everyone/everything. Only soul remains and ‘seen’ by both in the moment. Osho experienced it at the age of 9 yrs with Shabhu Babu Dubey-as per Swarnim bachpan, his book. Here still need of other is there so one need to take one more step.
This experience brings one beyond passion and attachment into compassion and then without any other’s help one is able to ‘see’ his/her self or soul or consciousness or existence or emptiness for first time. Now no one can take it away from you, not even body’s your death. Effortlessly it happens and called as Wu-Wei-Wu in China/Taoism or ‘Satori’ in Japanese Zen. It spreads in your whole body immediately and you are no more the same person. Now onwards everyone or everything that comes in contact with you gets benefitted by it automatically and even you cannot stop it – just like fragrance of a flower. Whole existence will get benefitted by it, may be felt locally only.
Unless and until one has experienced all these forms of Love, Satori’s experience is not said to be real but mind’s trick only. You fall in first Satori and with that your old vanishes and new is born. After that Satori keeps happening at intervals and then it happens daily.
Meera says : पायो जी मैंने ‘नाम’ रतन धन पायो। खर्चे ख़ुटे नहीं, चोर लूटे नहीं। दिन दिन बढ़त सवायो॥
Means: The day I got the word of ‘Omkar’ sounding in me on its own, after that Satori my understanding or learning is growing everyday. It is such a wealth that even no one can steal it from me and if I distributes it to people it increases more than that.
Then there is still another step called as ‘the fourth’ or ‘turiya’ or ‘surati’. Here one attains a state of effortless compassion 24×7 and sound of Omkar starts ringing itself into body for 24×7.
Awareness meditation is the way worked for me, may be you too find it suitable otherwise Dynamic meditation is for most of the people. There are 110 other meditation techniques discovered by Indian Mystic Gorakhnath about 500years before and further modified by Osho that one can experiment and the suitable one could be practiced in routine life.
Osho International Online (OIO) provides facility to learn these from your home,

This is an opportunity for learning and knowing Osho through these sannyasins who lived in his presence and brought to life his words in best possible quality in all formats.
Disciples of Jesus left him alone in last minutes but Osho’s disciples remained with him till he left his body willingly after working, till last day, for all of us to get enlightened. Jesus tried hard till last minute, before being caught, to teach meditation to his disciples. As per Saint John’s Gospel:- Jesus used word ‘Sit’ to transfer his meditative energy to them and went on to pray God, but on returning he found them sleeping. He tried two times again but in vain.
Even today Zen people use word ‘Sit’ for meditation in their saying ‘Sit silently, do nothing, season comes and the grass grows by itself green’.
