Absence of Ego (Live Like Yogananda, Class 1)
Although avatars like Yogananda may be praised for their humility, in actuality it is not humility they are expressing. How can there be humility when there is no sense of self, absolutely no identification with ego? Swami Kriyananda explains how he never saw Master affected by anything anyone ever said to him. Master’s peace of mind rested entirely in his knowing that he is completely loved by God, as are each and every one of us. These characteristics of Yogananda are representative of any master and offer us a roadmap of how to behave and where we are going.
