A

Ahankara is there, "I am Brahman, spirit soul." But he is thinking, "I am Indian," "I am American," "I am dog," "I am cat." Vimudhatma. And this first principle of knowledge they cannot understand
At the time being, my consciousness is not purified. It is polluted, because I am thinking "I am Hindu," another is thinking "I am Muslim," one is thinking "I am man," another is thinking "I am dog," "I am cat" - so many consciousness

B

I

N

Not to falsely think that I am American, I am Indian, I am cat, I am dog. That has to be finished. But you'll come to the real egoism, that I am eternal servant of Krsna

Y

You cannot stop fighting between the dogs and cats. Why there is fighting? Because the dog is thinking, "I am dog"; the cat is thinking, "I am cat." Similarly, if I think, "I am Irishman," "I am Englishman," it is the same thing
