$How To Surrender (And Discover Creative Power!) Today’s writing as seen in the video… Get yer hands up! What does it mean to surrender? Cheap trick has a great song called surrender It goes “Mommy’s alright Daddy’s alright They just seem a little weird Surrender surrender But don’t give yourself away” To that I’d say Which self are we talking about giving away? (For we are vast and contain multitudes) And can you give a self away? Or must a self die? Or be obliterated And/or swept into the light of something higher? Surrender is one of the great words It sounds good in poetry And in rock n roll A punk band could sing “Never surrender” and it would sound good A crooner could sing “Surrender your love” And the ladies would swoon But what does it actually mean to surrender In spiritual terms? It’s meaning on a battlefield is obvious To lay down your guns Or if you ever find yourself running from the cops Surrendering doesn’t need much explaining But what does it mean spiritually? And how does one go about doing it and why? In spiritual terms It means turning over the reigns of your life And operating from a place Where you acknowledge within that you aren’t God And so turning over self will To the will of the father If we break evil down The benchmark of its fingerprints Reside in the realm of control And not even actual control But merely the illusion of control People manipulate other people as a means to control them Or even media’s propaganda and lies are vehicles of a kind of societal control Herding the people to do and think as they say One could say no man is truly independent Standing on the foundation of his tiny ego Like the king of his own world It’s in our nature to surrender our will to something or other Be it media or God Or even our own damaged psychologies Which invariably have risen from some external source Some mind virus we are merely the host of Calling it ourselves So in spiritual terms When we are asked to surrender ourselves to God Or presence Or the higher realm of consciousness That exists within us all We are actually liberating ourselves From other forms of surrender That are beneath us And only serve to entrap us Into lower dimensions And so surrendering in spiritual terms Isn’t really an act of giving ourselves up But rather an act of giving up our illusions And dismantling the stranglehold of the world’s logic That would have us imagine We are doomed little insignificant creatures On trajectory of oblivion, fear and death Control however is the nature of the ego And so to surrender in spiritual terms Means an act of the ego going all the way against it’s very nature And doing something that it is entirely designed not to do. This really is impossible Until of course The ego is properly bloodied Is fragmented and fractured And practically all the way blown apart on the battlefield of life After all its schemes have been tried And tried and tried some more And after you arrive at the bottom of yourself With no more ideas on which way to turn That you haven’t turned before In short It take years and mountains of pain and suffering Before the ego is ready to even begin to acknowledge that it may not know what it’s doing or the best way to go Unfortunately for most of us This state isn’t arrived at until deep into this earthly existence And for many it’s never arrived at at all Jesus said it’s easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to make it to the kingdom of heaven For this very reason A rich man’s egoic schemes are much more likely to be casting a big enough illusion For him to hide out in Jesus said all those revolutionary things in his sermon on the mount referencing this idea as well Blessed are the meek Blessed are the poor in spirit Because they are ready for the heavy lifting of surrender Or more like the heavy letting go This is why seemingly upside down logic works so well And why if you find yourself As Bob Dylan puts it “On the bottom of a world full of lies I’m not looking for nothing in anyone’s eyes” Fear not Ironically you are on a very elevated plane indeed It’s way high up down there at the bottom.
