Getting rid of your ego

 

For God’s sake don’t do anything to your ego! Just let it be. If you find you have a big ego, don’t try to get it out of yourself. Let it be. You know, trying to meddle with your ego becomes a bigger problem. Then you say, “Look, I erased my ego!” Nobody can do this! Understand that?

You know it’s so difficult to get rid of the ego. It’s like saying – ‘I’m the most humble person in the world! You can’t find anyone with more humility than me!’ Does it make any sense? So if you find there is any ego, let it be like that happily. Don’t try to meddle or get rid of it. Just smile!

You know, ego is stiffness. When you’re at home, you relax. When you feel at ease, then ego is not there. The antidote for ego is just being natural. One day if you want to act crazy or foolish, it might help you a little bit, because your greatest fear is what others will think. Give everyone the freedom to think whatever they want to think, right? Then you’ll find you’re so much at ease, at peace with yourself.
