Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 This word surrender has also been misinterpreted and people promote idleness in the name of surrender. We think that our mind, thought and body have been surrendered to the Lord. This in fact is not true and is in the direction of deceiving the Lord. We are undertaking to cheat the Lord. Your mind is not under your own control and under such circumstances how can you hold it and give it to the Lord. You have no control over your own body. If you have a small cut, blood oozes from your body and you run to a doctor asking for a bandage. If this is your body and if you have complete control over it, why is it that you are not able to control the outflow of the blood.. In this context to say that you have surrendered your mind and body to the Lord is a statement which is untrue. This word surrender conveys that there is someone who gives and someone who accepts and that you are surrendering to someone. There is a feeling of duality implied in this word surrender.. A man with a dual mind is half-blind. In this manner, while he remains with this dual thought, how can he recognise the non-dual aspect. - From Bhagawan's Discourse in Brindavan in June 1974 Bollywood news, movie reviews, film trailers and more!
