Surrendering The Ego

The path of devotion is not only about
what you can offer or do for the Beloved in the material form,
by donating your money, time and energy.
These acts of service are all preparing you to offer that,
which is dearest to you: your ego or conditioned mind.
It is dear to you, even though it is also the source of all your suffering.
It is dear because it is close to you, because you are so identified with it that you truly believe,
this is who you are.
When you are able to offer that to the Beloved,
you’ll understand the true meaning of devotion.
