Ishvara Pranidhana – Celebration of the Spiritual

Ishvara Pranidhana – Celebration of the Spiritual

Ishvara pranidhana surrender to god, or a higher power. Ishvara pranidhana requires that we set aside some time each day to recognize that there is some omnipresent force larger than ourselves that is guiding and directing the course of our lives. Ishvara pranidhana provides a pathway through the obstacles of our ego toward our divine nature—grace, peace, unconditional love, clarity, and freedom. Ishvara Pranidhana is to live an ethical lifestyle of non-harming, honesty, charity, purity, contentment, and discipline. All we have to do is let go.
