To meet reality is ruthless. To meet it without the mediation of the thought “I can control this,” is to face death. Really to face death, here and now.
This is Ramana’s awakening. Papaji said, “Stop.” If your life is about going, becoming, getting or escaping—stop.
The invitation is to let the life that is living this life, live it. When you let life live itself, you are actually surrendering to yourself. ~ Gangaji
