How do you surrender? Begin by seeking silence. For this, come home to yourself. Come to the present. Ask yourself: Where am I right now? What am I doing? What am I thinking? What am I sensing in my body? What is the quality of my breathing?

Transcript

What is about to follow is a guided process conducted by Anthony DeMello.

Please do not listen to this while operating a motor vehicle or any kind of equipment.

From time to time you will hear a chime.

The purpose of that chime is to invite you to put the recording on pause while you either complete an exercise or reflect on something that Anthony DeMello has said.

The next exercise,

The surrender.

Begin by seeking silence.

To do this,

Come home to yourself.

That means,

Come to the present.

Ask yourself,

Where am I right now?

What am I doing?

What am I thinking?

What am I sensing in my body?

What is the quality of my breathing?

Silence cannot be induced or sought directly.

What you must do is seek awareness.

And silence will appear.

If you now wish to communicate with God within this silence,

Imagine that you surrender,

That you let go each time you breathe out.

That each outgoing breath is your way of saying yes to God.

Yes to what you are today,

To the kind of person God has made you,

The kind of person you have become.

Yes to the whole of your past.

Yes to whatever lies in store for you in the future.

Let go each time you breathe out,

With the awareness that all will be well.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.

For in His hands,

In His will is our peace.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.

Let all anxieties cease and let peace take over.
