  5. Surrender word itself sounds too difficult today as everyone is trying to control more and more. But the explanation by H.H Radhanath Swami makes the process easier. It is easy to understand by this.

  6. A very power packed quote, but so difficult to implement as our false ego will not allow us to keep God’s will before ours. We will need spritual strength and guidance to implement this.

  13. What a simple definition of surrender. “Surrender simply means keeping God’s will before our own.”
    To follow it we must say No to our personal selfish desires.

  14. The life of Radhanath Swami is filled with sacrifices for others and more so to help others move towards Lord. As Radhanath Swami puts the will of Lord before His own, so does the Lord protects and empowers Him to spread the message of Lord.

  15. It is impossible to surrender depending upon our own strength & determination. We have only one hope to live it practically–the guidance and mercy of the pure devotee of the Lord , like Radhanath Maharajah.

  16. Radhanath Swami has put the essence of all religions in such simple and plain understanding. thank you.

  17. Maharaj quotes in his lectures surrender of Jesus Christ , he had the chance to go away to escape from the prosecutors but he surrendered to the will of the Lord.

  19. It takes a bonafide spiritual master like Radhanath Swami Maharaj to make us surrender to God in a practical way as explained in this quote. Without someone like that it’s impossible for the conditioned soul to do it on his own.

  20. So easily our will puts God’s will in the background. But saints like Radhanath Swami help us remember that by putting God’s will before our own, God is satisfied and so are we.

  21. Such a nice quote! This human enjoying mentality, this mentality of overpowering everyone and everything, does not easily let us depend completely on the Lord.
    I pray to Lord that I be able to surrender to you at all times

  22. Such a wonderful quote by Radhanath Swami. We just to be the centre always, but Radhanath Swami opens our eyes to what should the reality be.

  23. A very thought provoking quote by Radhanath Swami….If everyone would consider keeping God’s will as center of their lives, then this world would become free from envy & hatred & unhealthy competition.

  24. I have heard many explanations for surrender until now, but this definition by Radhanath Swami is the best one. Actually spiritual subject matters are not very easy to comprehend. We should be extremely grateful to saintly people like Radhanath Swami who bring about such simple and practical explanations for the complex philosophical terms

  25. Radhanath Swami Maharaj has always did that sacrificing his life for elevating the humanity , which is the will of the Lord , spoken through many great literatures

  26. When Radhanath Swami speaks about surrender, it seems so simple and doable, because he is living by that principle.

  27. “Surrender” was till now not much understood word to me untill i came across this lucid and most concise explanation. Thank you Srila Gurudev

  28. Radhanath Maharaj has made surrender so sweet & easy through this wonderful explanation.

  29. Simple statement to understand but difficult to follow. Radhanath swami has made this difficult path easy for us through his example and teachings!!!!

  30. we are conditional souls ,,so it is very much important to continuously remember about supreme personality of god head
    this job of rememberance to us is always done by gret soul i.e., “maharaj”

    hari bolllll!!!!

  31. Surrender – Explanation is short and simple like sutras yet profound

  32. Its so refreshing to again come across genuine devotees of God like Radhanath Swami. In recent times, I have mostly come across saints who dont talk too much about God, but more about “peace of mind” and similar things. While others focus on individual and social well-being, Radhanath Swami focuses on our eternal relationship with God which alone can bring about real well-being. He is a real saint. How can one be a saint without being a completely dedicated devotee of God?

  34. Such a deep concept expressed in such simple words.
    Radhanath Swami is a deeply realized soul.

  35. Radhanath Swami is basically asking us to shed our false ego & the pretensions of being the controller. That is the only way we can allow the will of God to prevail upon us.

  36. Radhanath swami Maharaj said surrender means ready to do anything anytime anywhere.

  37. This is a wonderful thought. Difficult one to actually apply but if we do this our life will be sublime.

  38. haribol. when His Holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaj was coming to india first time, he planned to have his itinerary just the same as the car driver who was giving him lift. so His holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaj showed this by his practical example. Radhanath Swami Maharaj Ki Jai…

  39. HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj’s is really a true spiritual leader. He has come to remove the darkness of ignorance by spreading the most valuable gift of Golaka Vrindavana- The Hari naam sankirtan. (Chanting and Dancing the glories of the Lord). Thank you Maharaj. HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj ki Jai!!!

  40. Life of maharaj clearly shows this statement in practice. There are so many incidents in ‘THE JOURNEY HOME’ in relation to this quote.

  41. Maharaj’s quotes are very meaningfull and great help for our spiritual progress.

  42. This simple, yet profound statement by Radhanath Swami puts surrender to God in its proper perspective. Nowadays people do all sorts of activities and claim they are surrendered to God.

  43. Very important instruction for persons on path of self realization.Thank you very much HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj.

  44. Give away everything in Krishnas service and one may call himself a surrendered…..Maharak lives this quality……

  48. Thanks a lot to Radhanath Swami for reminding such basic fact of spiritual life, which I always tend to forget.

  49. A complex subject like surrender described so eloquently in just one line!!! Thank you Radhanath Swami

  50. It is so evident from every incident described by Radhanath Swami in his autobiography “The Journey Home”. He had completely surrender to the Lord even at that age and was fully dependent on his mercy. He practices all what he preaches. He preaches by his own example.

  51. Such a beautiful and practical definition of surrender. In every thought, every word and every act has to be evaluated on this principle – this helps a spiritualist check how far one has travelled on this path.

    We have to take guidance from the likes of Radhanath Swami if we have to succeed on this path, else our mind and senses so expertly cheat us that we end up doing mundane activities under the label of spiritual!

  52. HH Radhanath swami maharj ki jai………..

    All Glories to HH Radhanath swami maharj

  53. Radhanath Swami gave a deep meaning to surrender: Keeping Lord’s will before our own.

  55. Radhanath swami maharaj life itself is a life of full surrender and dependence on God

  56. Surrendering is so simple for a pure soul like HH Radhanth swami maharaj.And in his association it becomes possible even for an impure heart.

  57. His Holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaj ki Jai !!!

    What a simple definition of Surrender His Holiness Radhanath Swami has quoted. How simple it is to understand the surrender in this way. However, unfortunately as deeply conditioned I’m it doesn’t see so easy. I beg and pray at the lotus feet of His Holiness Radhanath Swami maharaj to please empower me to be able to give up whimsical misuse of my free will and endeavor to surrender to the will of His Holiness Radhanath Swami and lord Krishna.

    His Holiness Radhanath Swami maharaj ki Jai !!!

  59. Surrender means to do anything at anytime without desire or expectation……..As shown by Radhanath Swami Maharaj by his action,words,behaviour and adopted well in all conditions for helping all suffering souls……

  60. In Bhagvat Gita Krishna urges all to surrender to Him, but many do not know how we can surrender to God. Radhanath Swami has made in this statement very clear how one can surrender to God. This statement of Radhanath Swami is as clear as sun shine.

  61. Radhanath Maharaj simply makes things very clear. And this is just an example of it.Just in one sentence with clarity you understand what is surrender..

  62. HH Radhanath Swami with utmost humility demystifies the mysticism of the revealed scriptures in words that penetrates deep into the heart of sincere seeker of Absolute Truth

  63. In the material world where I interact daily, ‘surrender’ has a very derogatory and negative feeling—it is considered shameful to “bow” to someone superior. Here we have an extraordinary and simple definition which goes counter to the wrong views of the world at large. God is Supreme, and His Will will prevail.
