Some Thoughts About Surrender

 


Surrender means doing what is called upon one to do, moment to moment,  to the best of one’s ability, yet relinquishing the obsessive need for a specific result and leaving it to Ishvara’s Order.

Surrender is accepting the reality of the present moment as an expression of Ishvara’s order, shifting one’s posture from resistance to acceptance and alignment.

Usually the ego constantly claims ownership: "I did this," "This is mine," "I failed." Surrender softens this ownership. It reframes skills, life, and breath itself as Ishvara's gifts rather than personal possessions.
