Premanand Maharaj Ji
How do I overcome ego and pride?
Pride gives all sorrow, except pride in being His servant
Pride is the root of the cycle of birth and death and gives all kinds of sorrow. See Bhagwan's kripa (grace) and wear down the ego, keeping only the pride of being His servant.
Pride is the root of the cycle of birth and death and the giver of all kinds of pain. This pride alone gives all sorrows and keeps us turning in that cycle.
