Ego of a Jnani

Ego of a Jnani

  ( Ramanan ) 
" A Jnani crushes the ego at it's source. It rises up again and again, for HIM  too,  as for the ignorant, impelled by nature i.e. PRAARABDHA ! 
 Both in the ignorant and the Jnani, ego sprouts up but with this difference ! 
Ignorant's ego when it rises up is quite ignorant of its SOURCE , or is not aware  of it in deep sleep, in the dream and waking states .  Whereas - a Jnani when his ego rises up, enjoys his transcendental experience with this ego, keeping his lakshya ( Goal ) always on it's source. His ego is not dangerous, it is only the ash skeleton of a burnt rope ! It is not a snake ! 
 Although it possesses a form it is ineffective. By constantly keeping our lakshya ( Goal )  on our source, our ego is dissolved.- 

Ramana Maharshi ( from 'Conscious Immortality')
