What is it to be surrendered?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Surrender is the dropping of the imaginary ego, awakening to the truth that you are never separate from existence; in this realization, you reclaim your authenticity and wholeness."
According to Osho, surrender means dropping the imaginary ego—the felt separation from existence—and letting the master remove what was never real. Nothing is taken from you; an illusion ends, like waking from a dream. In surrender you regain what is real: your authenticity, wholeness, and aliveness. The master gains nothing; you simply awaken to your inseparable oneness with the whole.
Let go of the pretend “me” that feels separate, and you wake up to being part of everything; you lose nothing and find your real self.
