Why did I write this book, and why did I call it EGOnomics? I believe you need to defend your ego against countless efforts to diminish it.

In this book I want to straighten out our understanding of the human ego and I want to give you tools to help you feel ...

Sri Bhagavan then went through each of them and wrote out in easy Tamil prose the gist of these works on bits of paper and answered supplementary questions put by Seshaier. ...

The question, “Who am I?” is a tricky one. Most approaches available to those who seek answer to this question are rooted in the ‘self’ itself, making study of the ‘self’ in order to find its reality. Anyone following these approaches is bound to get trapped in the ‘self’ in such a way that it becomes difficult for him to escape from it. This question itself is genuine but once a person starts trying to find answer for it, inevitably his efforts lead him to a blind alley. Once he arrives there, generally he takes recourse to self-deception and starts indulging in philosophy ...
