While being bewildered, one should offer oneself; but on acquiring clarity, one cannot remain saying &#8220;I have offered myself to him&#8221;; considering &#8220;I have offered my belonging, i.e. myself to him&#8221; is lower than the <em>AthmApahAram<\/em> (illegal claiming of self as independent instead of considering self to be dependent on bhagavAn) which was being done since time immemorial. If that was done, the previous state of stealing of bhagavAn&#8217;s belonging continues; also, it is false to say that one has acquired real knowledge. To avoid sarva mukthi prasangArtham (to eliminate the question of everyone getting liberated) one has to offer the soul; but when one acquires clarity in the heart\/mind, one will accept bhagavAn&#8217;s belonging [AthmA] to be his. <a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\/index.php\/alavandhar\/\">ALavandhAr<\/a> too said in sthOthra rathnam SlOkams <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2017\/02\/sthothra-rathnam-52\/\">52<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2017\/02\/sthothra-rathnam-53\/\">53<\/a> \u201c\u2026 <em>mayA samarpitha: , \u2026 athavA kinnu samarpayAmi thE<\/em>\u201d (I have offered myself &#8230; (After knowing that everything is yours) what can I offer to you?) <a href=\"http:\/\/acharyas.koyil.org\/index.php\/nammazhwar\/\">AzhwAr<\/a> too said in <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2016\/02\/thiruvaimozhi-2-3-4-enadhu-aviyul\/\">thiruvAimozhi 2.3.4<\/a> &#8220;<em>enadhAvi thandhozhindhEn<\/em>&#8221; (I submitted my self unto him) and &#8220;<em>enadhAvi yAr yAn Ar<\/em>&#8221; (neither the actions of the AthmA nor the doership of the AthmA that is submitting are under my control).
