Question: How can I accept total surrender?
Sri Chinmoy: You can accept total surrender as the peerless gift to be placed at the Feet of the Supreme. The surrender-diamond has no parallel on earth. Needless to say, this surrender is not a forced surrender, a slave’s surrender to his master. No, this surrender is the surrender of the divine lover to his divine Beloved. This surrender recognises and becomes the universal Oneness.
