this weeks NOW session had a wonderful moment when the true meaning of sharanagathi dawned on me. When Suresh talked about the crucification scene from the movie"Passion of Christ", he tried to bring out the effect of the frame when they show the expression on Mother Mary's face. That moment signifies total surrender to the destined occurence. When you are left powerless to see your own child suffering the torture, and cannot do anything about it but to mentally join your son's side by giving in to that moment beyond emotion - beyond joy and sorrow....
We often feel surrender in moments that please us. I have always had resistance for many moments in life out of conditioning and when i just go ahead let that resistance slip , it feels like the water flowing smoothly on the ground and finding its way naturally.....
I just understood the word Sharanagathi...
