823. Why is surrender so great?

```

Why is surrender so great?

Surrender is great

Because it accepts

Cheerfully

What it does not understand

Remotely.

Also,

It does not care to understand

Vaguely

Anything whatsoever.

It only believes and obeys,

And

Obeys and believes.

Surrender is by far the greatest

Because it alone is the glowing ascent

Of the aspiring heart

And

The proud descent

Of the Absolute. ```
