I Have Surrendered
March 8th, 2009
(Lotus flower)
Holy Mother of my soul, complete,
I have surrendered, at Your Lotus Feet,
All the hurt and all the heat,
All the feelings of defeat,
All the anger, all the pain,
All the tension, all the strain,
All the worries, all the fears,
All the years of unshed tears.
Oh! Shri Vishnumaya, dazzling bright,
Chase away the shadows of the night.
Shri Adi Guru, ancient dawning light,
Take away illusion from my sight.
Let the dried-up hot dead sea of strife
Turn to the lush soft garden of vibrant life.
Show me the way to become my own Master,
How to reach my Self in the Virata.
The Way is only You, Your Lotus Feet,
Beloved Holy Mother, my All, Complete.

Thanks a lot for this quote, that came while doing some introspections.
Why not see things in a positive way even when we have difficulties around? Why not see the positive things in others? Their defects are not going to nourish us; when we decide to surrender all our problems to God’s will, finished; when we have confidence that we have pure desire, it will work out.
Only spontaneously things work out without any efforts. This is a living process. It is not something to read only. If it is not experienced, it will not be felt or understood.
