The concept of surrender in Chapter 26 is one of total and absolute submission of the self to the Guru. The author makes a profound plea to Sai Baba, laying their ego at His feet and declaring that no "me-ness" remains. This surrender involves asking Baba to take away body-consciousness and the need for pleasure or pain, requesting to be moved according to the Guru's will like a puppet. The prayer goes even further, asking Baba to become the devotee's very "me-ness" and to take on the experiences of life, so the devotee may find unwavering peace at the Guru's feet. This illustrates a deep yearning for the dissolution of the individual ego into the will of the divine Guru.
