practice
"Dissolve the ego, and the neurosis disappears; remember, you are not the center, but a wave in the vast ocean of existence."
According to Osho, Patanjali would treat the modern mind’s neurosis exactly as he would ancient man’s: by uprooting the ego, the basic neurosis. He would challenge the false 'I am the center' and guide you to drop the I, remember you’re a wave in the ocean, and return to naturalness. Technology changes, the mind doesn’t; dissolve ego and neurosis disappears.
Stop clinging to the loud 'me, me, me' and feel part of everything, and your mind calms down.
