When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it.
Before doing any good unto others, it is necessary for a person to know the
difference between soulful happiness and egoistic happiness. If you tamper with
someone's ego, then along with him, even you will be badly trapped.
-Deep Trivedi
Flashing of past or future in any form or thinking about it even for a moment...is
nothing but the 'ego'.
-Deep Trivedi
Only he, who lives freely can enjoy life to the fullest. An egoist can never live
freely. And it is also true, how can a person tied up in numerous bondages do
anything else but die each moment he lives?
-Deep Trivedi
The ego isn’t wrong; it’s just unconscious. When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it. Don’t take the ego too seriously.
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
-Deep Trivedi
Feeling a sense of pride on accomplishing something, is a proof that you have
got more than what you deserve.
-Deep Trivedi
The jiva or living being is endowed with ego and his knowledge is limited, whereas Ishwar is without ego and is omniscient.
He is not obtained by mouthing mere words, but by rooting out ego from within.
There is nothing more "deceitful" than ego in this world. If you want to see,
carefully observe the people who unnecessarily show high moral, talk ethics,
visit temples or strictly follow rituals. Their entire being reverberates ego, yet
they are unaware of it.
