According to Osho, the ultimate is not hard at all—it’s utterly simple. It seems hard because the ego rejects what carries no challenge, prestige, or power, and meditation is precisely that simplicity. The real hurdle is our unwillingness to lose ourselves; ego-death feels like death. If you are ready to dissolve, it can happen instantly; if not, you may wander for lives.
It’s easy, but our ego hates simple letting go because it feels like dying; if you’re willing to drop your “me” for a moment, it happens right away.
