Quotes about Ego by Swami Rama

  • Meditation is a very powerful thing that gives helpful vibrations to all. When you meditate, it definitely affects your children. If you record the brain waves of a child who is sleeping while you are meditating, you will find a difference. Even your plants and your pets are affected when you meditate. Instead of imposing your ego or your emotional problems on your children in the name of discipline, please discipline yourself, and then your children will also learn.
  • Spirituality dawns when individuality vanishes. When our ego becomes aware of something that is higher than it—the individual Spirit, or Soul; then spirituality dawns.
  • When we are inadequate ourselves but our ego is strong, we tend to blame others.
  • Jealousy is an evil which grows in the womb of ego and is nourished by selfishness and attachment.
