I 68NEW LIFE IN GODone has to recede back to the position of an innocentchild. It means an entire involution, a complete metamorphosis,supplanting one's own individuality.It is the path of self-abnegation, which not everyonecan take.On the other hand, the path of spiritual discipline iscomparatively easy. Self-effort can be tried by anyone inorder to achieve spiritual advancement.It is, no doubt, a long and tortuous path, as comparedwith the way of self-surrender, but one can, with confidencein the Master, tread it firmly step by step. If,however, a person is fortunate enough to take to selfsurrender,he can have all the blessings of the Masterquickly; for he goes directly into his lap and has nothingto do by himself for himself.He is then the Master's Elect, his beloved son, the sonof God Himself. But even a really blessed soul rarely is ableto acquire this attitude.2Z3With a Jiva's surrender to a Satguru, the Lord takes himunder His own protection and grants unto him the blessingsof Sahaj (i.e., eternal happiness). All doubts andfears now disappear and he comes to his own real Self.224Endless are His praises, endless the words ofcommendation;Endless His works and endless His gifts;Endless His vision, and endless His inspiration;Endless and beyond understanding is His purpose;Endless His creation and endless the endsthereof.
