God is the Doer - 06.24.10

Student Comment: Ever since I was born, I was taught that God was there, that you had to ask God for things, that you had to say thank you, and that He was the doer, not you.
“What you were taught is the exoteric version of religion, which is a dualistic version,” clarifies Shunyamurti, the esoteric teacher of the Sat Yoga Institute in Costa Rica. “Ultimately, yes, God is the doer, but are you not that God also, part of that Whole. It’s the mind that is in a state of separation from that, and the mind wants things from that Being rather than wanting salvation from the mind itself, and that is what the Supreme Being offers.” Surrendering to the Self, to God, is the only way to end suffering. “Surrender is the very surrender of the sense of being a separate entity from the Absolute. And in that, all confusion ends.” Recorded on the evening of Thursday, June 24, 2010.
