Please read The Purpose of Surrender from The Teachings of Inner Ramana and contemplate it with your inner teacher. Follow inner prompting regarding the best way to contemplate the reading with the inner teacher. If you don’t feel a specific prompt, ask the inner teacher to share whatever is most important for you to know, see or realize regarding this message.
If prompted, review the tip from Day 296.
For the remainder of Year 2, use each day’s Thought of Awakening as a prayer that you return to throughout the day in order to remain in a state of devotion.

Holy Spirit,
it is my will
that I do Your Will.
I am aware
of a voice in me
that is not Your Voice
or Your Will.
I chose this voice
and gave it permission
to speak in my mind,
but now I make another choice.
It is my choice now
to return to My Will,
which is also Your Will
because our Will is the same.
Help me to leave
the habits I have formed
and return Home
to my Heart and my truth.
Show me when I have slipped
and begun to forget who I am,
that I may surrender the will I no longer want
and return Home to Your Will and my Heart.
Amen.
~A prayer of awakening
