Balance-in-life Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““Egoism is not required to run sansar (worldly life). Egoism is required to create our next life. If you do not want to create next life, the sansar can be run without the ego. Entire sansar is in the form of ‘discharge’. That’s why the ‘discharge’ will happen on its own.””
