How can the state of surrender be attained?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Surrender is not an effort but an insight; when you recognize that the ego's separate center is an illusion, you can place your trust in the Whole and let go of personal doership."
According to Osho, surrender is attained not by effort but by insight: see that the ego's separate center is false and that existence has one center beyond 'me'. Place your center in the Whole (call it God, Buddha, life) and live as a means to That end. Trust the total movement, relinquish personal doership, and align with the interconnected flow; then surrender flowers naturally.
Realize you are not the boss of life; trust the bigger whole and let it lead.
