Listen "8. Clarity on Practice"
Episode Synopsis
"Surrender is a decision to put aside mind completely. ...It is quitting the mind and turning to higher knowledge for guidance without any lingering thoughts that through the ideas and education of mind, you know what to do."
“‘What am I to do now?’ Ask this question 1000 times per day, and you are beginning to learn the true practice of surrender."
~ Excerpts from the Clarity on Practice message from Inner Ramana
Today’s message points out that the mind tries to feign surrender.
In the mind’s fake surrender, there is still the feeling of “I know.” In genuine surrender, there is the knowledge, “I do not know.” Thus surrender is letting go of the mind and living by listening to spiritual intuition in the moment.
Assignment for week 8: Continue to practice the mantra and surrender, but start to question your identification. When you notice that the mind is defining you (“I’m stupid, “I’m smart”, etc.), ask who or what is saying it. E.g. “Who says I’m stupid?”, “What says I’m smart?” Start questioning those identifications.
