Convinced Quote by Rajneesh

“'I am' is nothing but another name for the ego.…” quote by Rajneesh — Download Open image

“'I am' is nothing but another name for the ego. Now you will be getting into trouble. If the ego is convinced that the only way is to drop the ego, then who is going to drop whom? And how? It will be like pulling yourself up by your own shoestrings. You will look just silly. Watch each word that you use. 'I am' is nothing but the ego.”
