Surrender vs Control
Forget about surrender! Just know that there is one power which is in control of everything. Seasons are not in your control; the earth moving around the sun and all the planets moving in their orbits are not in your control. Every element on this planet has its own laws within which it functions, all of which are not in your control.
There is a natural law, a power that is in total control of everything, which gives you some control to do certain things. It is like the pilot of the plane is controlling the plane, but inside the plane you can get up, use the wash room, sit or stand. There is little freedom for you too. Similarly, we have our responsibilities; we perform them to our optimum. We take responsibilities; do what we need to do knowing well that the plane is being steered by a good pilot.
Surrender is not an act. Actually the word surrender has lost all its meaning. Just be aware that there is a bigger mind, a bigger self, a bigger intelligence which is at work.
========================
Culture is also one such gift of nature. Nature has provided us with multi-cultural things, whether it is food, music, language. Just imagine if all over the world, people spoke only one language, it would be so boring!
========================
Remember, whatever is yours will always be yours. Compassion & love are your very nature; these will always remain in you.
========================
Q: I don't want to be part of any particular religion, but would rather have fun by taking a little bit from everywhere?
Guruji: You may have fun, but don’t make fun of any religion, okay!
========================
Q: Is it compulsory to light a lamp in the pooja room?
Guruji: No, it is not compulsory. It is your choice.
========================
The world should be diverse. Just imagine, if the world has only one type of vegetable, only carrots or only potatoes, you won’t even touch them! Nature loves diversity; it has manifested itself in diverse forms, which should be protected. The diversity in nature must be protected.
Om Namah Shivay
