How can I surrender totally?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Total surrender arises not from technique, but from the dissolution of the ego through deep awareness; it is a trustful openness to existence, where freedom and blessings flow effortlessly."
According to Osho, total surrender isn’t a technique and never to a person; every “how” is ego. Simply bring intense awareness to your inner “buts” and contradictions; in clear understanding, the ego dissolves and with it the urge to control. Then surrender happens naturally—not as spiritual slavery, but as trustful openness to existence: the sky, stars, oceans, mountains—giving freedom and blessings.
Don’t chase a method or a guru—just see yourself clearly until ego softens, and relax into life itself.

- Prevents guru-dependence and spiritual slavery.
