"Egoism [Ahamkar: Aham=I; kar=did] means 'I did'. Where one is not the doer and he says, 'I did'; that is egoism. To do egoism and to walk around with an inflated chest is pride (maan) and then to go on telling others 'I did it myself', is known as pride with my-ness (abhiman)."

"It is a secret which every intellectual man quickly learns, that, beyond the energy of his possessed and conscious intellect, he is capable of a new energy (as of an intellect doubled on itself), by abandonment to the nature of things; that, beside his privacy of power as an individual man, there is a great public power, on which he can draw, by unlocking, at all risks, his human doors, and suffering the ethereal tides to roll and circulate through him: then is he caught up into the life of the Universe, his speech is thunder, his thought is law, and his words are universally intelligible as the plants and animals."

I replied, 'They do not seem to me to be such; but if I am the devil's child, I will live them from the devil."
