AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am practicing surrender in my day to day life to krishna bhagwaan. I try to surrender myself to him while doing any type kind of work during the day like be it office work or talking to someone over phone or personal meetings or even just being silent etc. After certain extent, my ego fights with it. It does not allow me to surrender further. It caused a little disbalance in my mind yesterday and it caused headache. I did not like it. Was i suppressing my self here in order to go selfless?? How should i counter this force to move ahead in surrendering? Should i remind myself of the true aspiration that I have to know my creator when such things happen🤨?

Yes, the reaction and revolt rises because certain parts of the vital have been just suppressed. The way is to become conscious of the inner cause of the disturbance, say some fear or desire or the hurt ego. Look at that part clearly and offer it to Sri Krishna with a prayer to remove it.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
