The third key is to Surrender.
It is important to note that one can surrender in two different ways: first way is to truly surrender to an authority, second way is to pretend to have surrendered.
If one is being instructed by a true authority of an instructor then allowing one self to be teachable is very important. However, truly surrendering does not mean that you allow yourself to be abused or idolizing the instructor. It means to allow the instructor to guide you with the belief that they have your best interest at heart unless proven otherwise.
The second type of surrender is not a true surrender. A person is trying to fool the instructor BUT in reality the only one being fooled is the person themselves. By being so skeptical, the person puts unnecessary walls and never truly learns everything. Often times the instructor can sense this deception and does not offer a complete knowledge transfer to take place.
Today's question is:
"Can you allow yourself to truly surrender?"
