Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 According to Purushotama yoga of the gita, it is said that one should surrender to Krishna on all occasions. WHat's that mean? Does it mean we should surrender our thoughts, actions, emotions to him? How to surrender, is there a specific method? Should we just say 'I surrender to Krishna'? What else is involed in this process, and how do we know we are actually surrendering? Should we remain passive, as a result? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theist Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Study the response Arjuna had to hearing Bhagavad-gita. Surrender did not render him a passive person. When he was shooting his arrows at the foe was he not thinking about his aim because Krsna is in control or did he concentrate on the target? He could have assumed a folded hand position with head slightly bowed before Krsna all the time but his surrender was in the form of total all out engagment in complying with the Lord's will.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Lay down your weapons, put your hands in the air, and jump up and down while you chant HARE KRSNA HARE KRSNA KRSNA KRSNA HARE HARE HARE RAMA HARE RAMA RAMA RAMA HARE HARE Then wait and see, that should work. You have a right to remain silent but chanting is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
