THE OTHER SIDE OF EGO

Knowledge sheet of H.H.Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Ji
# 295 (RISHIKESH),INDIA

Ego is an impediment for a leader,wise man,merchant or a servant,but it is a necessity for a warrior, a competitor.
A warrior is one who takes on challenges and commitment and stands by it.
EGO makes one sacrifice oneself for a cause.Ego gives strength and courage,brings valour(great courage) to meet the challenges with endurance and perseverance.A strong EGO will counteract depression.Often EGO is thought to be selfish but it is greatest motivating factor for creativity and generosity.
EGO propels one to venture into the unknown.

There are 3 types of EGO-
-> Sattvic
-> Rajasic
->Tamasic
 Tamasic EGO is barbaric and blind,and have self destructive tendencies.
 Rajasic EGO is self-centered and causes misery to oneself and others.
 Sattvic EGO is creative and has protective tendencies.

If you cannot surrender,at least have a Sattvic EGO,as a Sattvic EGO is always ready to sacrifice.
