Surrender To Banish The Ego

"Swamiji, if we surrender to you our Master, will our ego be taken care of?"

First of all, if you really surrender, you will become enlightened. There is no question of 'when I surrender" etc. But anyhow for argument sake, if you decide to allow me to penetrate you, I will prune your ego and keep it like a bonsai tree until such time you totally lose it and become enlightened.

You will have enough ego to run your business, and do your daily activities, not to hurt other people and yourself. Your ego will be like roasted seeds that do not grow any more.

Understand one thing: A man who is not yet enlightened has ego in him in some form or the other. Whether you have active ego or passive ego, the more you start being the observer, the more your ego will dissolve. That"s enough understanding for now.

With ordinary people, you can easily shield your ego and get away with it. With a Master, you can never deceive him. You can only deceive yourself into thinking that you have deceived him. However deeply hidden and well covered you keep your ego and cunningness, they will be simply bare under the Master"s gaze. While you struggle to shield it, the Master tries to heal it. Only he knows what a cancerous disease Ego is.
