Just as a seed cannot bring forth fruit unless it dies we can never be spiritually fruitful and realise the lord within ourselves until we have completely subdued our ego. As the seed has to merge in the earth in which it is planted, so has our ego to be eliminated. We can never be conscious of the lord as long as we are full of ego. Ego will eventually leave us only when we develop the quality of humility within ourselves. And this humility must not be superficial it must be real true humility comes naturally from within. Calculated and artificial humility is just like cosmetic jewellery. As long as we are attached to the objects of creation we are full of ego..... When we are attached to the divine melody within, we automatically become detached from this creation and are filled with genuine humility. Maharaj charan singh, light on saint john, chapter .
