==For Freedom ==
...when one is perfectly surrendered to the Divine one is perfectly free, and this is the absolute condition for freedom, to belong to the Divine alone; you are free from the whole world because you belong only to Him. And this surrender is the supreme liberation, you are also free from your little personal ego and of all things this is the most difficult—and the happiest too, the only thing that can give you a constant peace, an uninterrupted joy and the feeling of an infinite freedom from all that afflicts you, dwarfs, diminishes, impoverishes you, and from all that can create the least anxiety in you, the least fear. You are no longer afraid of anything, you no longer fear anything, you are the supreme master of your destiny because it is the Divine who wills in you and guides everything.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/07/20-july-1955#p10</ref>
<center>~</center> Passive or receptive identification with life, thought and love in all manifested forms is an accomplished fact, apparently the inevitable consequence of surrender to pure Truth.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/01/may-24-1915#p9</ref> <center>~</center>
When the central being has surrendered, the principal difficulty has disappeared." What is this central being?
The central being is not the same in everyone—it is the part that governs the rest of the personality and imposes its will on it.
When the psychic being holds this central position in the personality, everything becomes very easy.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/17/14-march-1935#p1</ref> <center>~</center>
In proportion as the surrender and self-consecration progress the Sadhaka becomes conscious of the Divine Shakti doing the Sadhana, pouring into him more and more of herself, founding in him the freedom and perfection of the Divine Nature. The more this conscious process replaces his own effort, the more rapid and true becomes his progress. But it cannot completely replace the necessity of personal effort until the surrender and consecration are pure and complete from top to bottom.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/32/the-mother-ii#p7</ref>
