Meaning of Dedication Skill
Meaning of Dedication
Dedication means surrendering one's mind. Dedication means renunciation of desires, aspirations, desires. Giving up our ego and living life according to the one to whom we have surrendered is called dedication. Dedication also in spirituality means surrendering one's soul. Saying this is as easy as it is difficult. Dedication to God is also very rare in man, devotion towards Guru is also rare, it is very rare for wife to surrender to husband, husband to wife, son to parents too.
We are not able to give up our ego all the time. We cannot even offer anything to others without greed. Offering prasad to God with the desire to get something, if the desire is not fulfilled then God changes. While God is only one. We even hide from God. Not being able to hide from the Guru is not possible for everyone. Because dedication means the death of my "I" and the birth of your "thou". That is, my personality is no longer mine, it has become that of my Guru or of my God.
In simple words, dedication means surrendering oneself completely with mind and intellect to a deity who has full faith and trust or without giving any reason and doubt as much as surrendering oneself to someone else for any use.

Radha loved Krishna very much, so Radha did not care about the society, the house, the world. He had loved only and only Krishna had complete devotion towards Krishna in Radha, only then Radha is immortal, this is the specialty of Radha Krishna's love in our heart. The devotion of both of them towards each other was very intense. When this feeling and love is awakened in our mind, then we get to know about our lover without speaking anything. Lover's desire goes without saying. When Krishna had left Radha, then everyone had told Radha to forget Krishna, but Radha had said that when love is from within, with precision, then distance does not matter. Love is done with the soul, not with the body. What happens on the plane of the body is only love, attachment and attraction, not love.
