What should I do when I feel confused between the paths of will and surrender?

"Embrace your confusion as the path itself; in utter helplessness, let your mind collapse, and from this darkness, clarity will emerge on its own."
According to Osho, when you’re torn between will and surrender, make confusion itself your path—totally. Don’t cling to any belief, certainty, scripture, or strategy. Enter utter helplessness until mind collapses; totality dissolves thought. From this dark night, clarity arises on its own. Courage is required: let everything you “know” fall away, and the real way reveals itself.
If you can’t choose, be completely okay with not knowing until your busy mind stops—then the right way appears by itself.
Why this matters practically
- Ends paralysis by embracing it fully, allowing clarity to emerge.
- Breaks dependence on second-hand beliefs and mental tug-of-war.
- Trains courage to face the unknown, a prerequisite for real transformation.
