The Veil



To sum up ego’s (or that which doesn’t exists) plight would simply mean :

Obstinate are the trammels, but my heart aches when I try to break them.
Freedom is all I want, but to hope for it I feel ashamed.
I am certain that priceless wealth is in thee, and that thou art my best friend, but I have not the heart to sweep away the tinsel that fills my room.
The shroud that covers me is a shroud of dust and death; I hate it, yet hug it in love.
My debts are large; my failures great, my shame secret and heavy; yet when I come to ask for my good, I quake in fear lest my prayer be granted.
- Tagore
To know the game area of ego, various manifestations of ego and to ultimately beat it in its own game is all that we need to know........bye the way, why don't you try to jot them down?
as you come up with your posts, i go to write mine,
