........
Man’s ego is the source of all his problems, all the wars, all the conflicts, all the jealousies, fear,depression.
Feeling oneself as a failure, continuously comparing with others makes everybody hurt– and hurt tremendously, because you can’t have everything.
Somebody is more beautiful than you,that hurts; somebody has more money that you, that hurts; somebody is more knowledgeable thanyou, that hurts.
Millions of things are there to hurt you, but you don’t know, it is not those things that are hurting you, because they don’t hurt me.
They are hurting you because of your ego.
Ego is constantly trembling with fear, knowing perfectly well that it is an artifact, an artificial device created by the society to keep you running, chasing shadows.
The politicians are happy, they want
you to go on running. This game of the ego, reaching higher and higher, is politics. The priest is happy, you go on asking for his blessings.
