Wisdom
is really important; and ego, we have to cut it. The less ego,
the better. It is a pity because we don’t really need this ego. The 'I'
that knows everything already, the 'I' that is expert in this and
specialist in that we don’t need all that. Because if we don’t have
them, then we are more smart. We will become more intelligent, smarter,
really.
The only reason I can do many things well and that everyone likes is
because, perhaps, I have very little ego or none. I keep checking
myself to see if any ego pops up. Perhaps the reason that your ego
doesn’t go away is because you don’t have the chance to rub with other
people, like no one checks you, no one fixes you; no one tells you
what’s wrong with you because you don’t do anything with other people.
Or, you are in a very high position outside in the society, like you
are a boss or some director, manager, whatever; you are the one who
tells everyone what to do all the time, and no one ever talks back at
you. Also, sometimes even as a practitioner, you have no chance to be
corrected by anyone else. But don’t be offended; cut that ego off.
Okay?
It’s not enough that you meditate. You’ve got to be exposed to many
situations to grow up. You have to go out and also react to the reality
in order to have more intelligence. Meditation helps also, but if you
don’t have a chance to polish it, then it doesn’t work.
If anyone at all scolds you, or even wrongly accuses you, be thankful
for that person. That’s good for your humility, actually; and even if
it’s not true, it’s also good for you. At that time, you check yourself
out and then you know how much ego you have. If at that time you just
still say, “Oh, I’m such a good person, why does he say like this and
like this?” And you complain all day, and then you’ll begin to hate
that person, then still it’s no good. Anyway, if someone corrects you
in any way, that’s really good for you. You learn from that mistake,
and you become better and better.
No
one is bad, just ego is bad. Truly the egos is the worst enemy of
everyone. Many people like to keep it, that’s the problem. If you
listen to this ego too much, you forget your great Self, your
intelligent Self, your wise wisdom Self. That is the only problem. It’s
a pity if you keep listening to the ego, like you know too much and all
that. Then you don’t know your real Self. The main problem is the ego
separates us from our true Self, from the one who truly knows
everything. If we just think we know everything about this world, then
we don’t know our Self. That’s the greatest problem with the ego.
The ego is the greatest enemy. Sometimes the ego destroys a marriage,
destroys a relationship, destroys a friendship, destroys the love
between mother and son, or father and daughter even, because the ego
causes conflict all the time—doesn’t want to do anything that is
pleasing to the mother or father or pleasing to the partner, just wants
to do the thing that causes trouble. Day after day like this, if a
partner always causes trouble, then of course the relationship is
broken. You cannot remember anything but bad things about each
other—bad souvenirs, bad happening, bad events, bad result – and never
good. So, of course the relationship cannot live this way, the marriage
cannot continue.
This
is just physically speaking. Talking about the spiritual level, of
course you’re even far away from your Self. If you’re clinging to your
worldly know-how a little bit, even if you don’t even know enough and
you think you know a lot, and you just cling to that, then you don’t
know your Self. For example, if you have something in front of you,
like even just a thin curtain, you cannot see yourself through the
mirror. But if that thin curtain falls down, then you can see yourself
clearly. This is the ego problem. It just stands between people; it
stands between your real Self and anything else that comes near you.
Then it makes everything damaged or ruined or distorted; it is not the
real thing anymore.
It’s a pity. This is not the thing we should keep. It’s our enemy. The
little knowledge that we think we know—that is not our true knowledge.
The ego is really hard to get rid of, very, very hard; and it ruins
many things in this world. It causes war. It causes enemies and hatred,
and ruin of nations. The people who have no ego never want to war with
anyone because they can see through the uselessness of those things.
So, ego is the worst enemy of everyone in this world.
Animals, they don’t have ego. True dogs,
for example, don’t have any ego. They are so pure, that’s why they can
love you every minute. Even if you just scold them, they come with
wagging tail immediately, the moment you come and love them. They never
hold any hatred within their heart for a second. You can see that. So
if you want to see the egoless being, look at the dog. Truly it’s like that.
Most animals don’t have ego at all, until humans interfere and ruin
their nature. That’s the problem. We humans not only ruin ourselves by
our little so-called knowledge of the world, but we also ruin nature,
and we also ruin animals. We force them into crazy behavior. I observed
it all and I know it. It’s the truth. I’m not just telling it from
books—it is truly like that.
