TWO PATHS

Same goal
When Masters say, 'Nothing can be done by you', it is to create that deep surrender - psychological death in you. You decide there is no more possibility; that nothing else can be done except relaxing. Ramana Maharishi calls this Atma Sharanagati - surrender of the soul. You can achieve this. You can go beyond fear in this way also, by closing all possibilities.
If you are in tune with the idea
'nothing can be done', you are a Bhakti
Yogi - person in the path of devotion.
You surrender. If you think,
'Everything can be done', you are a
Gnana Yogi - person in the path of
wisdom. You explore and experience.
Whether you work in this path or in
that path, going beyond fear is
possible. But you should be
completely connected to any one
ideology. Either you should be ready
to work with the fact that
'Everything is possible by me'-
expanding, or you should be ready to
work with the fact, 'Nothing is
possible by me' - surrendering.
