What happens when we are entangled?

"When we are entangled in our own darkness, it grips us like a living bear; true freedom arises only when we expose this darkness and patiently undo the ties we have created."
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.
Entanglement means your habits start holding you, but if you honestly see them and keep gently letting go, they lose power and you become free.
