Question 1
It appears to us that our only asset is our worldly experience, so how can we renounce that to surrender to a transcendental object?
Do not be afraid, thinking surrender is too hard. In order to know the Absolute Truth one needs a strong heart. To learn to swim one must not be afraid of water. Surrender is not difficult but easy and natural for the spirit soul. Anything opposed to surrender is miserable and unnatural.
