    If a person does five samayiks (introspective analysis by being as Self) he will say, ‘I did five’. This is how he will taste the sweet pride of doer-ship. Actually, he should say “it was due to God’s grace that five samayiks were done.” He should not taste the sweet pride of doer-ship.

    Wherever there is ego, meditation (dhyan) does not exist. The inherent nature of the ego is such that dhyan does not exist when the ego is present. Therefore, when dhyan arises it is a resultant state, it is not an activity. Dhyan is the effect that arises from whatever activity the ego does.

    What is egoism? It is that which runs away from God. As egoism goes on increasing, then stubbornness (aadayee), pride (maan), pride of doership (garva), arrogance (gamand) words are used. Egoism arises the moment one slightly moves away from God.

    The Self (Atma) is itself in the form of Science (Vignan swaroop). That is why it indeed Sees science everywhere. There is no problem in getting married, but it is ignorance of the Self (agnan) when you differentiate 'this is mine' and 'that is yours'. To say 'I' in all places is science, and to do egoism is ignorance of the Self.
