Ātmasamarpaṇa (आत्मसमर्पण) or Hṛdyāga refers to “self-offering”, according to the Ahirbudhnya-saṃhitā 30.4-5.—Two ways for the attainment of the highest reality are described in the Ahirbudhnya—1) one is that of self-offering or self-abnegation (ātmasamarpaṇa or hṛdyāga) through the meditation on the highest in the form of some of His powers, as this and that specific deity, by the practice of the mantras; 2) and the other is that of the yoga. Ahirbudhnya, however, concentrates its teachings on the former, and mentions the latter in only one of its chapters.
