THE NATURE OF SURRENDER
Swami Sivananda
In atma nivedana (self-surrender) the devotee offers everything to God, including his body, mind and soul. He keeps nothing for himself. He has no personal, independent existence. He has become part and parcel of God. God takes care of him and God treats him as Himself. Grief and sorrow, pleasure and pain, the devotee treats these as gifts sent by God and does not attach himself to them. He considers himself a puppet, as an instrument in the hands of God. He does not feel egoistic, for he has no ego his ego has gone over to God..
There is a very descriptive expression in the English language: “back to square one.” It comes from a game, and means that after having made a lot of effort and progress, if you suddenly make a wrong move, then you find yourself right back at the beginning—back to square one.

When one is in a mood of meditation, one is practising true religion, but by so doing one does not belong to any particular religious cult. We live religion when we are in a state of meditation, because religion is the relation between man and God, between the soul and the Absolute. The affirmation of it in life is religion’s aim.
