Surrender
I recently had an extraordinary experience. As I was going to bed, I gave up every effort to control and maintain my life. I surrendered. Pretty quickly I began to feel somewhat of a stream or flow of inexhaustible energy take over me. Whatever part of my body I relaxed completely, it would flow through. Once it took over my whole body and surroundings, I could no longer feel my body; only vaguely so. I raised my hand slowly without trying to abandon what felt like the Tao, I realized I was completely supported by it during movement of the body. I held my hand in the air above my chest, and I let go of control. My hand stayed in the same place, as if it was resting on something. It wasn't uncomfortable at all; it felt like I wasn't even attempting to suspend it in midair, but it was nevertheless. Very strange. I haven't had that experience for about a week, but it was unbelievable. I haven't really tried it again, but I surely will. All that is required to do that is to surrender everything- give up control of everything, and it will all fall into the hands of Being.
