When selfish desire arrives at your house, invite him in to sit. At first he'll try to convince you to go out wandering with him in search of satisfaction. But if you sit with him long enough, his persistence will vanish and you will find energy and self-confidence sitting in his place.

The quest to know the Self is innate. It shows itself in myriad ways. If someone shows us a group photograph, we always look for our own image. Underneath the drive for ego recognition is the real question: Who am I?

Ego builds the prison of self with the bars of me and mine. The prison door swings open through relinquishing personal ownership and attachment to the results of actions. Open the door to freedom and joy in this moment.
