what is meant by surrender?

[Guest guest]

We often hear about the word, 'surrender'. The meaning is very deep and it will dawn only through experience. Surrender is very crucial experience in human life. It pre supposes the knowledge, that there is a Higher Power, which runs the Universe and which is the cause for all the phenomena. First we preserve a false identity since the time of our birth in this world. We conclude that we are the 5' few inches individual with all physiological and psychological identity. We all know pretty well that no body lasts in this world for ever. Even in countries like Japan where there are many past 100 year elders, the maximum they cross is 120 years.Hence all know by experience and evidence, the physical body do not last beyong certain age. Alongwith the body, the individual existence ceases. But the all pervading Atma neither goes anywhere nor comes to any place. It exists for ever in all places. There is no displacement for the Atma since there is no space or place bereft of Atma. Hence surrender really means, to give up the false idea of body consiciousness. To detach from all the complex and environment. To sum up, we should become nothing identifiable. We should become one with Atma. This can be termed as surrender. Sairam.
