Devotee 5: Swamiji, why do people then feel the need for an ego?
What is the problem really?
Because it’s not that they want to specifically be a bad person, to be egoistic.
But there must be a reason why people after all these centuries, since the Vedas, don’t change and don’t share.
So the ego- there mustbe some reason for it.
They are afraid or there must be something.
Not that they are bad, but something why they can’t do it….
Sri Swami Vishwananda: No, there’s nothing. Well, did I say they are bad? (laughing)
Devotee 5: No, but the ego like... What is the obstacle not to be in the ego?
Sri Swami Vishwananda: Because no one wants to look at himself.
How many people really accept themselves how they are? Hm?
No, I am asking.
Accept everything.
I ask you this question now – Do you accept yourself how you are?
Devotee 5: No, I don’t think...
Sri Swami Vishwananda: Like you, many will answer the same thing.
As long as you don’t…
Devotee 6: It’s hard
Sri Swami Vishwananda: Aha. (laughter) (laughing)
When this ‘difficult’ is gone, when you don’t see it as a difficulty, then you will know the answer for that.
A beautiful way to start your day:
Just smile and watch :-)
