Different Energy
Let’s summarize Surrender:
Yes / Surrender
It is only Consciousness that can accept – there is no separate “I” that does the accepting – acceptance occurs – and you feel a different energy arising when acceptance occurs. (You can notice the Non Surrender by the physical contraction, the emotion and the mental judgment – all aspects of the separate identity. The separate identity is motivated totally by self interest)
1. Accept the simplicity of the moment – do not let your mind add a story to it (personalize it)
2. Ask – “Am I surrendered totally to the form that this moment takes – in the field of Now?” “Am I welcoming whatever form arises in the Now”
3. Make a Practice of accepting completely (surrendering to) small irritations. Allow them to be as they are.
4. Surrender completely to the form that this moment takes (in the field of Now), welcoming what ever appears in the Field of Now. YES. Embrace the form of that moment, as if you had chosen it.
5. When you notice that you have resistance to something or just generally then just let the resistance drop.
6. Acknowledge the Isness of the occasions without judgment or comment when you cannot feel the Inner Body, or notice the aliveness and stillness of a huge tree, or there is heavy mind noise, etc. It is as it is. Accept that
7. If you observe in yourself a Non-Surrender state – Allow it to be. Allow the Non-Surrender to be! Do Not fight it.. You cannot fight it – it just adds another Non Surrender to it!
8. When a “No” arises in you – notice it and Accept it completely. Surrender fully to it. It is as it is, and there is nothing personal in it.
9. If you are having difficulties saying “yes” to what is – then feel the Inner Body first, and maintain it while you Accept what is.
