Bandagi aur bakeide hosh kufr hai, bandagi he nahin II
That bending down in prayer wherein the control over one’s head is retained is but a misnomer. That surrender and submission in limitation of awareness is blasphemy and not surrender.
When you go to the Master for the sake of spiritual training you generally trust that he can be of some use to you. When you have experienced, then faith develops. Submission, at its highest peak, becomes surrender. How to achieve the state of surrender is the general question among the minds of the persons who have realisation as the goal. Surrender means no “I” or, in other words, to wash away the idea of “I” ness. For this the easiest way is that we should feel dependency on God almost all the time with attachment and devotion. If you try for surrender “I” is there, which develops, making is stronger and stronger. In this way instead of trying to jump into the water one jumps into fire.
[1928: pg. 34-35 (A.B. I)]
Consonance
“I will bestow something on you before annual function.”[Rev.Lalaji]
Submission: “As it may please you, my Lord. I have surrendered all that is mine to you (Persian half couplet).” [Pujya Babuji]
Answer: “I also recite just this: I have surrendered all that is mine to you.”[Rev.Lalaji]
Further Instruction: “Make a note of this, so that future generations may have a lesson about the extent to which you have established consonance with me.”
[19-07-1944: pg. 72 (A.B.II - I)]
Submission: “When I am surrendered to you, every work is also surrendered to you.” [BABUJI]
Answer: “That being so be perfectly at ease. However, the active concept of work will have to be in your mind, since you alone are my instrument.”
[23-06-1944: pg.40 (A.B.II - I)]
