Baba ji likens ego to the deadly demon Mahishasur. He calls ego as the
most astute of the vices or "avagunas". One would wonder why call a
negative trait clever? Because it is only ego which can take multifarious
forms, at times deceiving the individual to the extent of unawareness
about its very presence too. Some recognized forms of ego are-
administrative ego, wealth ego, power driven ego, health and size
driven ego. Ego it should be remembered does not only imply
establishing your supremacy on others and give vent to the Alpha male
tendency as Ishan Shivanand ji harps time and again, but a harmless
statement too can have egoistic undertones. Even saying that "I’m a
very good person", "I’m a very spiritual person", "I have a very
good nature" is ego. Till the time the consciousness remains in
the physical body, the false "I" remains. That’s why Baba ji
advises uttering these words before sadhna "I’m not this body.
This body is mine. I’m not this mind also. This mind is mine"
Then who am I? I AM THE SOUL, Purest of the purest
creations of Shiva. Shun ego. Be humble. Wondering whom to look
up to as an idol for humility? Who else but the down- to-earth achiever
Avadhoot Baba Shivanand ji Himself.
