According to Osho, when we are entangled, our own darkness—false habits, anger, enmity—grips us like a living bear, not a dead blanket; the more we clutch, the more it holds us. A glimpse of truth makes this bondage appear darker. Freedom comes by exposing the darkness, seeing the futility of turning poison into nectar, severing ties, and patiently, persistently undoing what we ourselves made.
