saranagati - surrender

   saranagati index     editor

The very basis of pure devotional life is saranagati which in a word means surrender. The prerequisite for pure devotional service is saranagati. First surrender, then pure devotional service begins. There are many varieties of devotional services performed under the names of karma misra-bhakti and jnana misra-bhakti (fruitive activity and philosophical speculation). However, these are not to be confused with suddha-bhakti or pure devotional service.
