 Surrender Is the Only Way (to Be) \

Realisation never dawns to remedy the suffering caused by identification with egoic existence, to the contrary, realisation dawns when egoic struggling ceases. The Truth is realised by means of Surrender, not by effort. It requires no effort to Be what already Is, yet it requires great effort to uphold the story of what is not, and considerably so in the case where there is an attempt (by the ego) to modify That which is changeless by nature, existing simply, and quintessentially unqualified as the Silent and Eternally MOT4onless Self.

When one recognises that effort and the desire to control merely arises out of the misconception that one needs to master 'conditional existence' through will in order to transcend it, then it is revealed as a pointless endeavour. Whilst continually attempting to control the flow of Consciousness (form) by way of egoic predilection one denies the entry of Grace into the Living Awareness. For Grace to enter fully into existence, openness is required.
Until one surrenders to the greater tide of Consciousness, the glorious and incomprehensible orchestration of the living condition cannot be revealed.

Surrender is unconditionally enjoying existence without egoic effort, and indeed requires no effort to be realised in Itself.

Surrender is Being with absence of effort, simply allowing and recognising that Consciousness always and unconditionally rests in, and Is God.

The one who is surrendered lives without the burden of expectation. Hence the end of all suffering.
