You should achieve something ahead of him so that he starts considering himself small in front of you. You can break his pride with your thoughts too. You have to take yourself to a level where these small things do not affect you. Give in to his pride and when he calms down, deliver an intellectual attack with love. If you want to break someone’s pride, then do such things that make him proud. And surpass him in that work. When a child is born, there are no molecules of this disease in him, but as time passes, the feeling of competition becomes stronger in the child. The thought of doing something different, of being superior to others, dominates the mind. Due to this, the seed of ego starts growing within us.
In the beginning this emotion and impulse is under our control, but as time passes it becomes so strong that we become its servants. Our entire activities start being motivated by ego-fulfillment. Ego becomes a vessel that never takes the name of filling. Even after getting money, position, prestige and fame, we remain dissatisfied. Life becomes like a desert in which the thirst for ego-satisfaction becomes like a mirage.
Due to the strength of ego, life becomes complicated and full of struggle. In the matter of ego we go on sinking deeper and deeper. Dissatisfaction, jealousy, greed, anger are the symptoms of the disease of ego. It is not easy to break the cycle of ego. For that, it is necessary to first step on the ladder of humility, dedication and sacrifice with all your heart and soul.

If you explain to someone about his ego, then you should tell him that the next step to get rid of ego is the realization of death. The beautiful body, worldly achievements and status that we are proud of are all transitory. Yet we do not hesitate to do wrong things to get them. But when this intuition awakens within us that death is the last station of the journey of life, then the feeling of ego gets transformed into surrender. Apart from this, if the lamp of love keeps burning in the heart, then it is easy to get rid of the disease of ego. The darkness of ego dispels automatically by the flame of love. If the lamp of dedication is also lit along with love in this garland, then the disease of ego cannot come near. The divine light of humanity starts spreading its light in all directions.

Once upon a time there was an argument between the Sun and the Moon. Suraj started calling himself big. He told the moon that when you come, no one greets you. When I come in the morning, people greet me. Then Chand said, it is not so, people salute me too. People standing nearby were also listening to the talk of moon and sun. Sapna said that the sun is the biggest, everyone said that the sun gives us light, our food grows due to the sunlight. But when the moon rises, we go to sleep; we do not need its light. Chand got angry after listening to the people and said that I will not come from now on. That day the moon did not rise at night, there was darkness all around. Even when people have to go to work in the fields early in the morning, they were not able to go due to darkness. And when he left home late, the heat of the sun had increased so much that he could not work. He had to leave his work and come home early. People prayed to Surat that you should come at night also, then we would not need the moon. After listening to the people, the sun started coming even at night. Now people wonder when to have dinner as it is not getting dark. When people try to sleep, they are unable to sleep because of the light. After walking like this for a few days, everyone’s health started deteriorating due to the heat. Then people prayed to the moon that you should come as before, we need both of you. And the Sun also apologized to the Moon. The Sun said that I was proud that I could single-handedly control the entire universe. But this cannot happen, we both are needed to survive.

If we conquer the darkness of ego hidden within us, then this world will automatically rise like heaven. There will be no one small and no one big in it. Neither will anyone be poor, nor will anyone be rich. There will be neither a king nor a pauper. Everyone will be able to enjoy the true happiness of life only by being engrossed in their own work. Many people around you must be seeing you full of courage, lively and sometimes mischievous. Actually these people are full of self-confidence. They feel that they will do everything at the click of a finger. But sometimes this confidence turns into arrogance. The pride that I know everything. Proud that I have a solution to every problem. Ego because every person asks for help from me.

There is not much difference between confidence and arrogance. And as soon as a person starts showing arrogance, people start avoiding him. No one wants to work with an arrogant person. Just like people need air to breathe, an arrogant person wants attention. He likes to hear his own praise all the time. If you don’t do this, then either stay away from them, or waste hours of time in arguments. Because they do not talk, they always argue. An arrogant person should not give much importance to his work. Try to do your own work. Such people love to hear their praise. Avoid flattering these people. These people do not shy away from debating on any issue. Instead of sharing their knowledge with others, they debate on it. The best way is to ignore their arguments. Keep focus on your work. He will automatically become embarrassed and become silent.
