Poem by Tagore

• “To know our soul apart from our ego is the first step toward accomplishing the supreme deliverance.

It is necessary that we know with absolute certainty that in essence we are spirit.

And we can only arrive at this knowledge if we render ourselves mastersof our ego – if we rise above all pride, all appetite, all self-serving, all fear– by coming to realize that material losses
and the death of the body can never take away the truth and the greatness of our soul.”
