Prarabdha Karma
Prarabdha Karma are the part of sanchita karma, a collection of past karmas, which are ready to be experienced through the present body (incarnation). According to Sri Swami Sivananda: "Prarabdha is that portion of the past karma which is responsible for the present body. That portion of the sanchita karma which influences human life in the present incarnation is called prarabdha. It is ripe for reaping. It cannot be avoided or changed. It is only exhausted by being experienced. You pay your past debts. Prarabdha karma is that which has begun and is actually bearing fruit. It is selected out of the mass of the sanchita karma." Each lifetime, a certain portion of the sanchita karma, most suited for the spiritual evolution at the time, is chosen to be worked out, during the course of the lifetime.

Karma In Hinduism
Karma is a concept of Hinduism which describes a system in which beneficial effects are derived from past beneficial actions and harmful effects from past harmful actions, creating a system of actions and reactions throughout a soul's ( jivatman's) reincarnated lives, forming a cycle of rebirth. The causality is said to apply not only to the material world but also to our thoughts, words, actions, and actions that others do under our instructions.Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda, ''The hidden power in humans'', Ibera Verlag, page 23., For example, if we do a good thing, something good happens to us, and the same applies if we do a bad thing. It is said in the Puranas that the lord of karma is the planet Saturn, Shani. According to Vedanta thought (which is the most influential school of Hindu theology), the effects of karma are controlled by God (Isvara). There are three different types of karma: ''prarabdha'', ''sanchita'', and ''kriyamana'' or ''agami''. '' Prarabdha karma ...

Surrender (religion)
To surrender in spirituality and religion means that a believer completely gives up his own will and subjects his thoughts, ideas, and deeds to the will and teachings of a higher power. It may also be contrasted with Submission. Surrender is willful acceptance and yielding to a dominating force and their will. Christianity In Christianity, the first main principle of surrender is "Dying to Self", or "The Carrying of Your Cross" allowing Christ to reign and rule in the order of how one's life is carried out, illustrated in the following passages: Another principle central to the Christian concept of surrender is the concept of surrender to God's Will.
