E206: What Surrender Really Means
Surrender is not about giving things up, practicing self-denial, or always accepting life’s circumstances. True surrender begins by recognizing that you are not the doer—the universe is continuously unfolding everywhere by itself: babies are being created, flowers are blooming, planets are orbiting, trillions of galaxies are spinning through space, and atoms are binding into molecules without human control. Yet we create in our minds the notion that we are the creator and controller of life. As we inwardly relax and allow reality to pass through us, we are left in such a state of peace, joy, and freedom that we naturally end up serving life instead of ourselves.
