As per the science of Spirituality, our true state of existence is identification with the Soul or God-principle within us and living our day-to-day life with this consciousness. As the one and same God-principle exists within all there is Unity in all Creation. Ego (aham) means considering oneself to be distinct from others and God due to identification with the physical body and impressions (sanskaars) in various centres of the subtle body. In short, ego is leading our life as per the thinking that our existence is limited to our 5 senses, mind and intellect, and identifying with them to various degrees.
God has zero ego. Hence the best way to destroy ego in oneself if to become like Him, that is to blend with God. Blending with God implies imbibing all of His various qualities in oneself. The efforts to be undertaken daily for this is referred as Spiritual Practice. So, the maximum amount of time we spend in doing spiritual practice the faster ego reduces. In Kaliyug, chanting the Lord’s name is the most effective spiritual practice so as to start one’s spiritual journey.
