Surrender. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/14/surrender#p16,p17</ref>

If you give yourself entirely to the Divine, it is He who does the Yoga, it is no longer you; hence this is not very difficult; while if you do tapasya, it is you yourself who do the yoga and you carry its whole responsibility—it is there the danger lies. But there are people who prefer to have the whole responsibility, with its dangers, because they have a very independent spirit. They are not perhaps in a great hurry—if they need several lives to succeed, it does not matter to them. But there are others who want to go quicker and be more sure of reaching the goal; well, these give over the whole responsibility to the Divine. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/5-february-1951#p5</ref>

Radha is the symbol of loving consecration to the Divine. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/16/letters-to-a-young-sadhak-iv#p23</ref>

There is not much spiritual meaning in keeping open to the Mother if you withhold your surrender. Self-giving or surrender is demanded of those who practise this Yoga, because without such a progressive surrender of the being it is quite impossible to get anywhere near the goal.

The path is long, but self-surrender makes it short; the way is difficult, but perfect trust makes it easy.
