Surrender is not the begining. This stage is for advanced devotees. Atma-nivedanam is the ninth of the processes of worship, not the first, which is hearing. You should not worry seeing you with partial surrender. You should
not make exhagerated efforts to surrender; spare mental energy for
practizing those disciplines who will give you natural surrender.
Gaudiya Vaishnava surrendering is transcendental love, not forcing of
ourselves or of others. year 1999 ______________________Manonatha Dasa (ACBSP) |
