What is meant by 'cutting the root' of all misery?

Cutting the root of all misery means dissolving the illusion of duality, allowing you to surrender into the oneness of existence, where tension and fear dissolve in the embrace of reality.

— Osho
According to Osho, 'cutting the root' of all misery means dissolving the mind-made duality—'I and thou,' 'my reality and your reality'—through surrender and choiceless, expectation-free patience. When the mind drops, the tug-of-war ends and one relaxes into indivisible Reality, the same in all. Seeing this oneness uproots tension, fear, and the ego’s restless alternatives.

Stop splitting life into me/you or this/that; let the mind’s arguing rest, wait without expecting, and you’ll feel one with everything.
