Prapatti is the idea that "I am at His disposal and that He does His work, I am just a tool in His hands".
Etymology and meaning
The word is derived as follows: "Pra+ – "pat" + "ktin" = "Prapatti".[1] It means "full self-submission". A practitioner of "Prapatti" does not see difference between "sorrow" and "joy' and accepts both with equanimity, He considers himself as a tool in the hands of Parama Purusa and feels—[1]
. . .everything is being done by His wish, that it is by His grace that He is using me as a tool, that He may or may not use me as a tool, but ‘His will be done
