Sweet Surrender

entry picture

Been wrestling with conceptual seeds. Thoughts of love

disturbing me,

passion troubling me,

desire corrupting me

Ideologies challenging me.

Until a spark of enlightenment light the room. Then I become a light to myself.

‘Surrendering to the other is a gift’ says the inner voice. It comes unconditionally from the heart.

Its meaning is existential.

The only way to know is to experience it. Feel it.

So, I want to say to you ‘If I surrender to you it doesn’t mean that I want you to surrender to me’.

That would be psychological exploitation.

Because asking you to surrender to me is not love.

I want you to create your own light. Be the you, devoid of ego.

I want you to touch that pinnacle of freedom where liberation reaches its climax.

And the only way to reach that state of unconditional giving

Is to surrender to your instincts.

Now look into my eyes... go deeper. Do you see the ocean behind them?

 

 

◄ Look, now we've gone and upset Irma

Going within -- and without. ►

That's beautiful Raj. Your patience will be rewarded I'm sure. Its Karma after all.
