End Ego, See Self

A small "I" A big EGO Makes minuscule feel large Distinct from others Better in many ways Hiding behind the fact that all are physically and mentally similar Born of same parents Nurtured by same nature Slowly heading towards the end of this short life If we kept aside this ego and looked from above Imagine ourselves somewhere far away from earth High above in the universe We will see a bunch of dots working together in earth Sustaining it with collective efforts Just like cells within body We are small cells Dependent on everything around us for sustainability Doing the small task assigned to us Everyone, everything around is us just like our body parts If all are happy and healthy So will we be All means every element of nature, all life forms Moment we love whole universe just as we love our body We would be leading an intelligent life For that is the truth Once we annihilate our ego, do our miniscule job perfectly without harming others We will experience blissful life Ego is ignorance Ignorance binds, gives endless miseries Egoless, brimming with unconditional, pure, selfless love we perceive truth Our delusion end and God, soul and our position in the whole scheme of things becomes visible We are liberated from this mundane existence to higher plane of eternal bliss

So very meaningful ! It is so difficult to deal with one with a bloated ego. Once we are able to annihilate this ego, we will be able to see all on equal footing and come to realize how dependent each one of us is on others. Then we will begin to love others. Great thoughts Rama !
