Surrender
A spiritual discourse on the nature of complete surrender to the divine.
"Surrender: Īśvara, prāṇa, dhana—complete surrender. Then He will take over; you are only an instrument."
"But on that day when you will think, 'I am the master; I will teach,' then the condition will be like a healthy tree attacked by termites."
The speaker teaches that total surrender to God or the Guru allows divine will to operate through the individual as an instrument. He contrasts this state of grace and inspired speech with the destructive consequences of the ego reasserting itself, which he likens to termites destroying a tree from within.
