Bageshwar Dham Sarkar
How do I know if I have truly surrendered to God?
Surrender is staying immersed in Bhagwan
Sharanagati is living life in the refuge of one higher than yourself. Just as a fish dies out of water, a devotee who does not remember Bhagwan should consider himself dead.
Sharanagati means living life in the refuge of one more worthy of worship than yourself. This is sharanagati.
