How can one attain meditation and still the mind's fluctuations?

Meditation is the art of preparing the soil, but the flower of stillness blooms only when you let go of the gardener.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source practice
Work sincerely to get ready, then stop trying and allow silence to bloom by itself—like watering a seed and letting the flower open on its own.
Why this matters practically
- Balances disciplined practice with surrender, reducing strain and frustration.
- Encourages creating supportive conditions while dropping the egoic doer.
- Helps you sense when to apply effort and when to let go, so quiet arises naturally.
