Feeling a sense of pride on accomplishing something, is a proof that you have
got more than what you deserve.

Quotations
Ego
Flashing of past or future in any form or thinking about it even for a moment...is
nothing but the 'ego'.
-Deep Trivedi
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
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
The ultimate freedom from the nonexistent ego is to see that it is actually irrelevant.
-A Spiritual Leader "Adyashanti"
Not knowing the consequence of good and evil karmas, he is afflicted and hurt. Nevertheless, he, due to his egotism, piles up karmas and undergoes births and deaths again and again.
-Scriptures "Acarangasutra 2.55-56"
There are two forces strongly present in you; one, your 'witness' and second,
your 'ego'. Ego, the one who is doing the things, and witness, the one who is
watching all that happens.
-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.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
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
Like other particles of the world even "ego" cannot be destroyed. Yes, it can
surely be transformed into soulful qualities... But the moment any "Buddha"
attempts it, fearing extinction, ego not only resists but also activates its self-
defence mechanism.
-Deep Trivedi
