It is a message about surrender, but in order to fully realize the lesson in the message, you will have to surrender <em>to the message<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>When today\u2019s message asks you to do something, surrender to it, and do it right then. If there are thoughts in your mind that say you don\u2019t need to do it, or you don\u2019t have time to do it, or you can do it later, practice self-inquiry to notice how the mind is trying to stop you from surrendering.<\/p>\n<p>Why would the mind try to stop you from surrendering?<\/p>\n<p>Is the mind trying to control you?<\/p>\n<p>Is the mind in control of you, or is your Heart in the lead in your daily life?<\/p>\n<p>In the Bible at John 15:4, Jesus said:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbide in me as I abide in you,\u201d is a call to surrender. The \u201cfruit\u201d that Jesus spoke of is awakening. Just as he told the disciples previously that salvation (awakening) is not possible for man, but only for God, this scripture points out that awakening is not possible if the mind remains in the lead. Surrender is necessary.<\/p>\n<p>When I was the scribe of Inner Ramana, I received guidance to add, \u201cAbide in me as I abide in you,\u201d to my mantra practice. In other words, just as I said, \u201cI am that I am\u201d to myself whenever the reminder came to do so, I also said, \u201cAbide in me as I abide in you,\u201d to myself whenever the reminder came to do so. As I used this mantra, I felt my inner desire to surrender. Through using the mantra, my resistance to surrender weakened, because I noticed that I (the true \u2018I\u2019) wanted to surrender. As I became more aware of my desire to surrender, surrender came more easily to me.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel guidance to journal about anything you read as you read today&#8217;s message, surrender to that inner prompt, and journal with inner wisdom as guided.<\/p>\n<p>Note: The next tip will be available tomorrow morning after 3:50am ET at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/awakening-together.org\/dev2\/day-317-tip\"><em>this link<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you read today\u2019s message, please surrender to it.
