In this masterpiece, Maharishikaa deconstructs traditional approaches to neo advaita, non duality, spiritual awakening, and surrender, bringing clarity to Christina and Peter as they grapple with their respective dilemmas. While Christina struggles with the contradiction between surrender and the premise “I am the Soul,” Peter seeks to understand the connection between surrender and karma (action).
Guiding Christina through the logical flaws inherent in a spiritual practice dominated by the statement, “I am That,” Maharishikaa explains that the very act of making such a declaration proves the existence and role of the body. She attributes identification with cosmic Soul—‘That’—to transcendental experiences that arose during the post-Vedic spiritual explorations of the cosmos, which influenced the philosophy of enlightenment and led seekers to experience a loss of personal identity.
Ushering in a groundbreaking perspective, Maharishikaa unveils a radically new practice, revealing that the future of spirituality lies in This-ness. She explains that this practice begins by acknowledging, “I am This,” and embracing everything the body is and does. The ‘I,’ now rooted in grounded identity, surrenders to the Soul within.
Maharishikaa brilliantly illustrates the duality in surrender through the Leela—the divine dance—between Radha and Krishna (the seeker and the sought), where one surrenders to the other. This sacred play would cease to exist under the premise, “I am the Soul.” She invites Christina to reflect: if she identifies with the Soul, how does surrender come into play, and what is the purpose of embodiment? Compassionately addressing Christina’s realization that her prior concepts and practices no longer align, Maharishikaa guides her toward true surrender, which ultimately leads to discovering the Soul within.
Addressing Peter’s perception of surrender as non-action, Maharishikaa explains that surrender is rooted in action. Peter, as the ‘I,’ actively bends in surrender to the Soul, especially in moments when the ego seeks control. The more he acts based on the Soul’s Impulse, the more joy he experiences; the more he resists the Truth, the more suffering he experiences.
Maharishikaa unmasks the origin of the pride Peter frequently experiences—uncertainty stemming from fear. She propounds that fear dissipates when one is connected with the Truth. She urges him to take up this practice of surrender and discernment, approaching it with love, yearning for Truth, and the intent to be its instrument.
Maharishikaa assures him that as he surrenders to the Truth, he will experience profound joy.
