Surrendering one's own 'I and my' at the altar of others welfare
is the very spirit of Gita's teachings. One's obsession with one's
own desires, ambitions, regrets, attachments etc. are the cause
of unnecessary strain upon oneself. The bundle of thoughts about
'my pleasure, my security, my name, my (receiving) love etc. is
itself the dreaded ego that the spiritual science talks about. These
thoughts are the ego cage where one feels bound. These verily are
the net where one is trapped! One oneself creates this out of
ignorance and one oneself has to destroy this.
- Swami Chidananda
