Premanand Maharaj Ji
How do I recognise ego in myself and get rid of it?
Bow to all, accept no honour
Ego is growing when you see faults in others and virtues in yourself. Seeing Bhagwan in everyone and bowing, giving honour to others and keeping saintly company destroys it.
When you see faults in others and virtues in yourself, you should understand that ego has come and is growing.
