Saranagati

One has to have great strength of mind to know the truth. If one wants to learn to swim, he must not be afraid of water. At the same time, one should know that saranagati, or the path of exclusive surrender, is not a difficult thing. In fact, it is very easy and natural for the soul. Anything which is opposed to it--that is unnatural and painful. -Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura
