The Practical Process of Surrender in Śaraṇāgati

Śrīla Prabhupāda Quoting Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura
“This is the process of surrender. As Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura sings: mānasa, deha, geha, yo kichu mora / arpiluṅ tuyā pade nanda-kiśora!”
Historical Context: In this purport (Madhya 10.55), Śrīla Prabhupāda explains the process of surrender and quotes Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura's celebrated song from Śaraṇāgati (“Mind, body, home, whatever I have, I offer at Your lotus feet, O son of Nanda!”).
