________________ the sun, if my Guru wishes so...!" The river surrenders totally to the vast ocean, in the bargain, reaches the sky...! Parmatma's divine words are so heart warming! Parmatma's words have latent within them, hidden treasures! True dedication is, when one has completely surrendered to God or Guru - whatever HE does, whenever HE does and wherever He does - everything is acceptable. Whether it is happiness or sadness, success or failure, anything He gives is accepted wholeheartedly and willingly. This is called true dedication, true faith and total surrender. The dedicated are indifferent towards the fruits of sinful or meritorious deeds. The soulful offering that eliminates our affection, jealousy, anger, ego and deceit is called real surrender. When an individual experiences longing for salvation, his negative qualities start decreasing. A hundred efforts made to overcome anger might go waste, but a single attempt of total surrender will keep anger miles away... it seems simple but is not as easy as it seems. Yet it is not impossible, if we try, we can definitely remain peaceful and calm and save ourselves from the devastating effects of the negative traits that could harm our future spiritual journey.
