"Best Means For Removing The Ego..."





"Thinking is the principal factor in gaining enlightenment. 


Vairagya (absence of attachment towards worldly pleasures) and Upasham (very low defilement, disaffection for it) are the two pillars for rise of thinking. 


As such, one should continually keep them in mind and bring out that state. 


Thinking does not generally arise without appropriately assimilating the words of saints. 


That assimilation occurs by uniquely and devoutly resorting to the shelter of the saint, because conviction about him is incomparably helpful in getting the beneficence. 


...For a true liberation-seeker, the devout shelter of a saint serves as the best means for removing the ego and bringing out the thinking state within a short time.(706)
