Checking In - Surrender

I'm sure everyone has their own way of surrendering. To me,

surrendering consists of keeping my ego out of it as much as possible.

The ego always wants to own everything and think its doing it, and

show how special it is, and want more. When I see it trying to raise

its head I laugh at it, which strengthens my awareness a little more.

This seems to allow Shakti to move unhindered, and there comes a joy

in sharing life with Her. I experience a deeper freedom to allow

whatever is to be, in full contentment...as though if nothing else

happened I would still feel complete and happy. Surrender feels like

another word for freedom. Does that help any? Love, dhyana

Dear Dhyana,

 

Yes, Thank you very much and will try it! It is the ego that wants to

be independent and do everything its own way?

 

Love and Hugs, Angelina

I think so. We become so identified with the ego that we think that's

all there is...and that if we drop the ego, what is left? And we feel

fear. Well, its the ego that feels the fear! What is left? You are

left. The you that is innocent and free, that feels and sees. The ego

colors everything with interpretations and projections. Without it you

are free, and can kiss the moment in gratitude for its beauty and

grace. All you have to do is feel yourself in the stillness, without

the mind doing its interpretations of things and its labeling of

everything. Each time you do this you're awareness of yourself will

grow and soon you will be free to be who you truly are...the childlike

playful being who lives behind your eyes. imho Love, dhyana

Thank you Dhyana! That is beautiful and it will be good to realize

that I am not this body ~ that is very good advice that you give!

Why do you think it is so hard to drop the ego? Do you think it is

because it thinks that we will disappear and there will be nothing

left when we are not even this body?

I don't think anyone can drop the ego. As we become more aware the ego

just disappears on its own. Its an illusion that we identify with, and

think we are it. When we create a little space from it through

meditation or just watching and staying in the present moment, it

begins to lose its hold on us. Once we get a taste of freedom, we take

back the wheel from it...and hand it over to Shakti! imho Love, dhyana

Just to add to the last post, you said, " and there will be nothing

left when we are not even this body? "

 

This body is our Temple. It is a very important part of our life at

this time. The Chakra One article shows how we need our roots deep

into the earth to anchor us as we grow. Thinking that we are not this

body is a thought, and of the mind, part of the ego. If you experience

that you are not this body that is a different story. imho lol! Love,

dhyana

Yes, we are lucky to have these bodies and they are Temples, but the

real us is not our body, from what I hear, but don't have that

experience, yet.

Thank you and that is interesting that the ego disappears on its own

and that it is an illusion that we identify with ~ you have a good

understanding of the mysteries. What do you mean by getting a taste

of freedom? Is this to leave the body?

 

Love, Angelina

You ask such good questions, girl! The freedom I feel is being free of

all the miseries the ego causes, and there are so many. Being free to

be myself at all times in the moment, unencumbered by the ego's

history and story that it loves to relive and brood over or wish

things to be other than they are. Its all fairly new to me so I'm

still exploring. Its like getting rid of a really narrow minded,

critical friend. lol!

 

Love

Thank you and I know the type and have gotten rid of them and we don't

need those types around us LOL You are really good at answering my

questions and have a lot of wisdom. You say being free to be yourself

in the moment, how does one stay in the moment? The freedom that you

feel sounds awesome and it would be good to be free of all the

miseries the ego causes and can see why it is called the vulgar one.

It would be good to be free of insecurities, nagging doubts and all of

the other baggage that comes with the ego, but at the same time we

need the ego and need to do what you or Shakti did to the ego. I

really want to experience what you experienced this morning ~ what do

I need to do ~ surrender, but not sure how.

 

Love, Angelina

I had nothing to do with what happened this morning. I was sleeping

and it woke me up. So I can't really tell you what needs to be done.

I'm just practicing the Safeties and the directions for Shaktipat.

Shakti does what She will, and I surrender to her. Love

Thank you and that would be an awesome way to wake up and will focus

on surrendering. I felt some very powerful energies right before the

Scatterfield started that lasted for several days, when I woke up and

did not do anything, either, so I can have an idea of what you mean ~

it was a rather humbling experince when realizing how powerful the

energies can be and I only had a tatse of it.

 

Love, Angelina

Hey Kids,

 

I think Dhyana, is right, we never totally lose the ego as long as we

are alive (when we're not, it may be different). Jung talked about

this though in his work on individuation, which is a fancy word for

how we become ourselves. As we grow up we work to create a strong

ego, one that can withstand all the challenges it will go through in

our lives. Somewhere around (usually) early middle age we begin to

merge our ego with our unconscious giving us the ability to know

ourselves at a much deeper level. We begin to uncover the archetypes

that influence us, which up until then have been unconscious. The

shadow and anima/animus are common themes that come up in dreams as

this is happening. As our ego listens to the unconscious, intuition

opens up, and we more and more work out of the Self and not just our

ego. As Dhyana said, meditation and being present help the Self to

grow. If you're interested, wikipedia has good articles on

individuation and the archetypes.

 

Love,

Peter
