Page 5 - Sri Aurobindo on Humility
P. 5
PRIDE IS ONLY ONE FORM OF EGO—THERE ARE TEN
THOUSAND OTHERS. EVERY ACTION OF MAN IS FULL OF
EGO—THE GOOD ONES AS WELL AS THE BAD, HIS
HUMILITY AS MUCH AS HIS PRIDE, HIS VIRTUES AS
MUCH AS HIS VICES.
To get the ego out of the human nature is not so simple as
that. If one is free from ego, does nothing with reference to
himself or for his own sake but only for the Divine and all his
thoughts and feelings are for the Divine, then he is
Jivanmukta and a Siddha Yogi.
~ Sri Aurobindo, CWSA, 31: 241
