Premanand Maharaj Ji

What should I do when ego arises in my mind during bhajan?

Offer your ego at the Lord's feet

When ego arises, offer it at the Lord's feet right away instead of worrying. Holding on to ego is what harms; surrendering it takes only a second.

If ego arises in our mind about something, we have a place for it: the lotus feet of the Lord. 'Brother ego, go and surrender there.'
