Surrendering to higher spiritual power from "summary" of Love Letters from Golok by Holly Gayley
The concept of surrendering to higher spiritual power is a central theme in the teachings of the Tibetan yogi Jigme Lingpa. This spiritual practice involves letting go of our ego-driven desires and attachments in order to align ourselves with the greater forces of the universe. By surrendering our will to a higher power, we open ourselves up to a deeper sense of purpose and meaning in our lives. In the teachings of Jigme Lingpa, surrender is not seen as a form of weakness, but rather as a source of strength. It requires courage and humility to relinquish control and trust in a higher spiritual power. This act of surrender allows us to transcend our limited sense of self and connect with the boundless wisdom and compassion of the universe. Surrendering to higher spiritual power is not about giving up agency or responsibility, but rather about recognizing our interconnectedness with all beings and the natural world. It is a way of acknowledging that we are not separate from the divine, but rather an integral part of it. Through surrender, we can cultivate a sense of harmony and balance in our lives, allowing us to move with grace and ease through the challenges and obstacles that we encounter. In the practice of surrender, we are invited to release our attachment to outcomes and trust in the inherent goodness of the universe. This requires a deep sense of faith and devotion, as well as a willingness to let go of our need for control. By surrendering to higher spiritual power, we can find a sense of peace and contentment that transcends the fluctuations of our everyday lives.- Surrendering to higher spiritual power is a practice of opening ourselves up to the infinite possibilities of the universe. It is a way of aligning ourselves with the divine flow of life and allowing ourselves to be guided by forces greater than ourselves. Through surrender, we can experience a profound sense of freedom and liberation, finding solace in the knowledge that we are held in the loving embrace of a higher power.
