→More on Surrender
Mind must learn from the greater Consciousness it is approaching and not impose its own standards on it; it has to receive illumination, open to a higher Truth, admit a greater Power that does not work according to mental canons, surrender itself and allow its half-light half-darkness to be flooded from above till where it was blind it can see, where it was deaf it can hear, where it was insensible it can feel, and where it was baffled, uncertain, questioning, disappointed it can have joy, fulfilment, certitude and peace.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/28/doubt-and-faith#p8</ref>

This Light comes not by struggle or by thought;
In the mind's silence the Transcendent acts
And the hushed heart hears the unuttered Word. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/33/the-adoration-of-the-divine-mother#p59</ref>
==How to Surrender the Vital?==
