What can I do to truly surrender and let go?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Surrender is not an act of doing or non-doing; it is the natural flowering of your being when you let go of desire, hope, and expectation. Live your life fully, and in your absence, grace will unfold effortlessly."
According to Osho, surrender can’t be achieved by doing or by deliberate non‑doing; both hide the same desire. Let desire, hope, and expectation fall away. Forget about surrender and live your ordinary life—eat, sleep, walk, dance, love—without waiting for miracles. In your utter absence, grace happens by itself; surrender flowers as your own nature.
Stop trying (and stop trying to stop trying); just live normally and forget about surrender—when the wanting ends, it appears on its own.
