What does it mean to surrender to love?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Surrendering to love means embracing the impersonal flow of love itself, where true joy lies in the freedom and happiness of the other, allowing both to coexist without possession or jealousy."
According to Osho, surrender to love means not submitting to a person or entering a possessive 'relationship,' but yielding to the impersonal flow of love itself: rejoice in the other's happiness, tune and dance in harmony, protect each other's freedom and individuality like temple pillars supporting one roof. Coexist—live and let live—without contracts, domination, jealousy, or turning love into law.
Let love lead, not control—be happy for each other and give each other space, like two strong pillars holding up the same roof.
