What is the will of the Unknown and how does it conflict with a person's own will?

The struggle against the will of the Unknown arises from the illusion of the separate 'I'; when the ego dissolves, you become a joyous instrument of existence, free from the burdens of personal will.

— Osho
According to Osho, the will of the Unknown (Brahman) is the ever-unfolding flow of existence. As long as you remain a separate 'I', you cannot know it and you struggle against it; this struggle breeds anxiety and suffering. When the ego dissolves, there’s no personal will left—you live as an instrument and witness, effortlessly aligned, joyous, and free of doer-ship and burden.

You’re like a leaf on a great river: stop trying to control the current and let it carry you, and the ride becomes easy and joyful.
