Saar (Essence)

Ananta teaches that as long as one maintains a sense of individual identity, suffering persists; true liberation comes from surrendering the limited self and its afflictions entirely to the Divine presence.

If you retain your individuality, the mind will only mix more and more muck into it.
Offer it up truly from your heart and it's going to be pulled out.
At my Father's feet there is no room for you; only your holy presence is present.

Seeker

I seek an example of this confusion. The nastiness of my personhood is a fact. I can't offload this as an excuse to God now.

Ananta

The 'I' in this must be coming from a limited notion about yourself. Who can then also offload this problem to God or not? As long as you have this entity, as long as we have this function that you are this 'I' who can outsource it to God or offload it to God or to surrender it at the feet of my Master, do it. Otherwise, we are not listening.

Ananta

If you retain it with your individuality, the mind is only going to mix more and more muck into it. If you offer it up truly from your heart, then it's going to be poured out. Just drop it. The thing belongs to you because you yourself are not a real entity. You and all these afflictions of need for attention, need for approval, need for something—you start to feel funny, yes? We look at them and you wonder how they were given space, how consciousness wanted to claim these for so long.

Ananta

Till you feel like you want something and you want to deal with it yourself, you are giving more and more belief to your individual identity. At my Father's feet, there is no room for you. When you surrender there, the meaning of 'Father's feet' is that only your holy presence is present.
