Surrender - Fullness of Faith - To Whom Do We Surrender? Part 01

[Guest guest]

The word surrender does not properly describe the

Sanskrit word Saranagathi. The Sanskrit word connotes

surrender in terms of devotion to God and acceptance

of his divine will. It implies not a surrender to some

other person, but surrender to our own inner divinity.

 

On the spiritual path, no one should be asked to

relinguish their judgement or to accept ideas blindly.

Nothing could be further from the truth. We must test

all spiritual teachings with our own experiences. To

reach the goal of liberationm we must evaluate the

benefirs of all doctrines four ourselves. Surrender

does not require discarding the intellect;it requires

heightened spiritual discrimination. Surrender to God

is surrender to our God oriented aspirations - to our

own God nature, the Atma.

 

" It is not a question of surrendering or giving to

some other one. One surrenders to oneself. Recognition

that the atma is oneself is surrender. Surrender

really means the realization that all is God, that

there is nobody who surrenders, that there is nothing

to be surrendered, nor is there anyone to accept a

surrender. All is God. There is only God. " Baba

Sai Ram Swamy Mahadevan:

 

I always enjoy reading all your postings in this forum. You have a

great insight into Sai Spiritual teachings. The teachings of Bhagavan

below that is posted by you is a big eye opener and greatest

inspiration. To blindly believe something is tamosic nature. Using our

discrimination power to experience the truth in spiritual teachings

would make us adopt to it very quickly.

 

I am very grateful to you for posting such wonderful teachings of

Bhagavan.

 

Jai Sai Ram
