MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION.115

Radhe krishna,

Good morning and have a blessed day,

AHAMKARA OR EGOISM
Swami Sivananda
Ahamkara or egoism is generated through delusion. Ahamkara is the greatest enemy. Ahamkara can be destroyed by Jnana only. Destroy the idea of 'I' at the very root. Sattvic Ahamkara will not bind you. Ahamkara is 'I-ness' or 'egoism'. This is generated through delusion. It permeates the Jiva or the individual soul all throughout. It is only through Ahamkara that all the mental cares, dangers and the ever-increasing actions of life arise. There is no enemy greater than Ahamkara. Ahamkara is born of Ajnana or ignorance. .

Sing the Glory of the Lord from whom all blessings stream forth.

- Swami Sivananda

All attainment, all achievement is the result of effort put forth in a suitable manner in a direction where the object desired is attainable, not in any other direction. If a water diviner tells a farmer to dig for water in a certain spot, then the procedure is always to dig vertically, straight   down. They do not dig in any other direction. It is done precisely, geometrically, correctly. And it is such digging that yields water. If, instead, one digs at an angle one may go down hundreds of feet but one will miss the water indicated by the water diviner.

SwamiChidananda.
