Full surrender

Friday, July 25, 2008

"Take away my will Krishna, I am Yours. Force me to do what is right and best. Use me as You like. You be my intelligence. You be my mind. You act as my will. I don't know what is best for me. In this lifetime I am trying so hard and nothing is working. I ask you to put me in the right place at the right time for the right thing. Whatever is best, whether it is auspicious or inauspicious, bring upon me what I need. My desire, my intelligence, even my will they are all contaminated. I offer them all to You, my dear Lord Shyamasundara. I am yours. You do with me what is best. Help me to be eager to accept not in a grudging mood, but with real zeal and enthusiasm, as I submit myself and ask You what can I do?" -H.H. Bhakti Tirtha Swami
