How to step out of a state of limbo?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Embrace the chaos of limbo, for in surrendering to the in-between, your identity melts away, revealing the divine essence that lies within."
According to Osho, the way "out" of limbo is through it: stop the ego's urge to escape, surrender to the in-between, and let identity melt - ice to water to vapor. Get more lost until the fixed 'dog' dies; embrace formlessness and chaos. By evaporating into nameless awareness - dying before death - godliness reveals itself as your innermost core.
Like melting ice, don't try to jump out; relax and keep melting until the hard 'me' is gone - then calm, clear space remains.
