Swami Mukundananda
How do I know if I have pride when I feel I am humble?
The intellect cannot see its own pride
Pride is forgetfulness of God and his greatness, and it sits in the intellect. If you ask your intellect whether you have pride, it will say no.
You ask yourself and your intellect says, 'No, really.' But whom did you ask? I asked my intellect, and it said 'I don't have pride.' The pride is sitting in the intellect.
