What is the nature of discipleship and does one have to earn it?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Discipleship is not something to be earned; it is a natural blossoming that occurs when the ego is exhausted and you surrender into trust and love."

You can't force discipleship or get it handed to you; give your all until your ego gets tired, and then peace, trust, love and compassion bloom by themselves.
Why this matters practically
- Practice total effort while letting go of results, softening ego and anxiety.
- Recognize authentic growth by spontaneous relaxation, trust, and compassion.
- Relate to a teacher for direction, not dependency, fostering inner responsibility.
