*Self-surrender, which means the progressive alteration of the personality (‘i’ consciousness) of the devotee, allows the devotee’s consciousness to gradually merge in the Ishta Devatha, his chosen form. Swami put a star here, which indicates Krama Mukthi, where a person attains

liberation progressively and slowly. He attains the Ishta Devatha, his chosen ideal. Swami said this is Self-surrender and is called Krama Mukthi. All those who are born here must attain God; this is Krama Mukthi, the path of progressive liberation. However many births one may take, this is the end for all. A person takes thousands of births and slowly attains God progressively, through Krama Mukthi. Another person performs sadhana, with full effort and attains Mukthi, here and now. This is what Swami has taught when He came here.
