You are not your name, profession, body, personality and deeds. The body belongs to you. The personality belongs to you. You belong to infinite many things like these.
Choose.
Ego will always limit your choices.
It will make you a middle class and you will never enjoy the freedom that a poor man enjoys. It will make you high-class and you will never get to enjoy the scorching sun, sweat, hard work and the wind breeze. I will make you a poor class and you will never have the courage to rise to the riches.
Ego will limit your capabilities. It will prevent a rational man from being creative and vice versa.
Ego is one big lie – fostered by continuous absence of the awareness that you are in auto-mode.
Ego is not always bad. But, it is always limited.
Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.
What would you be without your name?
What would you be without your body?
What would you be without your professional status, personal wealth and relationships?
What would you be, without an idea about yourself?

There are only two type of people and class in the world: one of
“ego consciousness,” and second of “god consciousness.”
