Quotations
Ego

Where egoism exists, Thou are not experienced. Where Thou art, is not egoism. You who are learned, expound in your mind, this inexpressible proposition.
- Scriptures

It is still in the hands of psychology to free the person from his 'innermost pains
and miseries' that he endures at deeper level; but it is not in anyone's hand to
help him eliminate his ego-driven sorrows. This is where no one else, but only
he can help himself.
- Deep Trivedi

If you wish to experience the ego of having done something great in life, then
you will have to do away with all those small petty egos you tend to carry day in
and day out.
- Deep Trivedi

The gulf between I and you is the ego. When the ego is removed the distance disappears and the ‘I’ and ‘you’ also disappear. They merge to become one — and that is love.
- A Spiritual Leader

After helping someone, if you expect a gesture of gratitude from him, then there
is no point in helping. If you feel good when he expresses his gratitude, then too
helping is useless. In that case, you must understand that your help was merely
a means to satiate your ego.
- 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

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

The jiva or living being is endowed with ego and his knowledge is limited, whereas Ishwar is without ego and is omniscient.
- Adi Shankara

When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it.
- Eckhart Tolle

Under the influence of false ego one thinks himself to be the doer of activities, while in reality all activities are carried out by nature as a natural process.
- Srimad Bhagavad Gita
