When And Why To Surrender

Q. To surrender to a living Master fully is almost impossible for me. What is the best way to attain enlightenment for a seeker who cannot surrender completely?

This Is A Wonderful Question. It'S Like You Are Asking, 'Achieving Enlightenment Is Almost Impossible For Me. What Is The Way You Give For Me To Achieve Enlightenment?

Actually there are some possibilities. You can surrender to a deity. You can surrender to the Master who left the body.

Understand, Masters who left the body are not dead as you think. The dead Masters are not dead as you think, living Masters are not alive as you think. They are still available. Their presence does not have a body; you can still connect with them. The only problem is it takes lot of time.

Living Master is the first choice, the second choice is Masters who left the body - trying to connect with them and the third choice some deity whom you don't even know existed or not; that is the third choice.

Of course last choice - try to connect or surrender to anything even to a hill or river or ocean or a small stone; the very surrender will raise you to the deeper and higher and higher frequencies.

When you say namah - let the 'I and mine' be relaxed, let the 'I and mine' be surrendered, that itself will raise you to the higher states of consciousness, higher frequencies. But whatever is said and done it will all take its own time and only second or third choices.
