You have a will and you can offer that will. Take the example of becoming conscious of your rights. If you take the attitude of passive surrender, you would say: "When it is the Divine Will that I should become conscious, then I shall become conscious." On the other hand, if you offer your will to the Divine, you begin to will, you say: "I will become conscious of my rights." You have the will that it should be done; you do not sit down idle and wait. The surrender comes in when you take the attitude that says: "I give my will to the Divine. I intensely want to become conscious of my rights, I do not have the knowledge, let the Divine Will work it out for me." Your will must continue to act steadily, not in the way of choosing a particular action or demanding a particular object, but as an ardent aspiration concentrated upon the end to be achieved. This is the first step.
