Can the subtle body of a seeker be separated from the physical body through willpower?

According to Osho, no—willpower can move the gross body (fasting, walking, sitting), but it cannot separate the subtle from the physical. Real separation is not a feat of force; it is disidentification born of witnessing and tathata. Walk, eat, live—while knowing you are not the doer. Through choiceless awareness and acceptance, the knot of identification loosens; nothing is torn apart, only seen rightly.

You can’t force your spirit away from your body; just watch calmly and accept, and you’ll realize you aren’t the body.
