What is the difference between thasak and ego?

Thasak versus ego

When "I" is joined with something born of nature, it is blameworthy ego. When "I" is joined with Prabhu, it is thasak, an auspicious pride.

The "I" joined with Prabhu becomes thasak (a proud, confident claim on God), and the "I" joined with nature becomes blameworthy ego.
