What does it mean to take the other as the end to be attained?

definition
"When you stop making yourself the goal and recognize the Whole as the only center, you become a hollow reed through which existence plays, dissolving into harmony without anything to attain."
According to Osho, to take the other as the end is to stop making yourself the goal and recognize the Whole/Divine as the only center. You are a means—a hollow reed—through which existence plays. Drop the ego’s claim to be the end, surrender as instrument (nimitta), and you instantly dissolve into harmony; nothing to attain—just awaken and allow.
Let the Whole be the purpose and be the flute the Divine plays, not the player.
