Power of submission

The Power of submission is the basic power we talk about. But it is not just submission to a human being. It has its real meaning in submission to the Supreme power we call God. 

But the moment we say submission to God, it starts seeming that we are being fatalists - waiting and counting on something unseen to come and do things for us - and how can we leave everything to God - and if we do, what will WE do then from our side? What is our role in our success?

What we forget is that all we do or have or are, is not from us anyways. It’s not just the results which come from outside us, but also the inspiration to work that comes from that divine source of power. 

The smaller the goals you set out to achieve, the more it will fan your ego. And the bigger the goal you set out for, the more you will need to involve words like God and faith and belief and vision. The moment you want to think of moving mountains, faith will have to be brought in automatically.

Submission is a much easier way to live than “control”. People might be able to succeed with the latter too, but perhaps the path is too tedious. Just like you can “not be” in submission to your upline and build a big business, but it’s going to take too much energy and too many mistakes. 

The stronger the man, the easier it is to be in submission. Trees that are stiff and do not bend in the wind, fall. But the ones who are strong are the ones who bend down with the winds, only to stand up again, this time taller than before.
