Inner peace comes from surrendering to the divine will from "summary" of The Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda

In the heart of the Himalayas, I learned an invaluable lesson that has since guided me on my spiritual journey. It was there, amidst the majestic mountains and serene surroundings, that I realized the true source of inner peace. I came to understand that surrendering to the divine will is the key to finding lasting tranquility and contentment in life. Through my encounters with great souls and holy men, I witnessed the power of surrendering to the divine will. These enlightened beings had a profound sense of peace and serenity that emanated from within them. They had relinquished their ego and desires to the higher power, allowing themselves to be guided by the divine plan. In doing so, they found a sense of fulfillment and purpose that transcended worldly concerns. I too, experienced the transformative power of surrender during my own spiritual quest. As I delved deeper into meditation and contemplation, I learned to let go of my attachments and expectations. I opened myself up to the will of the divine, trusting that it would lead me on the right path. In surrendering, I found a sense of liberation and freedom that brought me closer to the source of all peace and joy. Surrendering to the divine will is not an act of weakness, but rather one of strength and courage. It requires humility and faith to let go of our own desires and trust in a higher power. It is a profound act of surrendering our ego and allowing the divine to work through us. In doing so, we align ourselves with the universal flow of life and open ourselves up to infinite possibilities. When we surrender to the divine will, we release ourselves from the burdens of worry and fear. We find solace in the knowledge that we are being guided and supported by a higher force. This sense of trust and surrender brings a deep sense of peace and contentment that cannot be shaken by external circumstances. It allows us to navigate the ups and downs of life with grace and equanimity.
  1. Surrendering to the divine will is a powerful practice that can lead us to the true source of inner peace. It is a journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth that opens up new vistas of understanding and enlightenment. So let us surrender our ego and desires to the divine, and allow ourselves to be guided by the higher power. In doing so, we will find the peace and serenity that we seek, and ultimately, discover our true purpose in life.
