Gita has said it correctly that the egoism arises first, and then comes the body. Egoism binds karma and this mind, speech and body are its effects (results). Egoism is the cause and these mind, speech and body are the effects.  Questioner: Then, egoism is the fundamental cause? Dadashri: It is not the fundamental cause either. It is a... https://www.dadabhagwan.org/path-to-happiness/spiritual-science/what-is-ego-egoism/egoism-binds-karma-free-from-egoism/ Thu, 20 August 2026 Dada Bhagwan Foundation https://www.dadabhagwan.org/path-to-happiness/spiritual-science/what-is-ego-egoism/is-kindness-a-form-of-egoism/ Questioner: Is there egoism in pity (daya)? Dadashri: Pity is an egoistic quality! All dualistic (dwandva) qualities are egotistic. All traits that are dualistic, are egoistic, even dwaita (dualism) is an egotistic quality, and adwaita (non-dualism) is also an egotistic quality. These people are all opening up 'shops' of adwaita and nothing comes out of it.

Scientifically, when two different elements come together, a third compound is formed. This is also how the ego arises, when the body and Soul come together. So, what is ego? Ego means ‘I’. It refers to existence: 'I am'. All living beings are aware of their own existence – “I am”. However, they do not know who they are – “What I am”.

It is divine love and that is why the warmth of God’s love is very different. Why does God love us? There is no motive behind God’s love. God loves us because God is nothing but love. The inherent attribute of God is - pure love.  If we have a true liking for God, He is never far away from us. But today, we have a liking for everything except God.

Once you put an end to the causes then the effects will automatically stop. Therefore, to stop sexual attraction it is important to know how it arises in the first place.

Dadashri: If you try to ‘do’ anything, you will bind karmas. Here you simply have to ask for what you want.

Dadashri: Purity of karma occurs by purifying the chit. When the chit (inner complex of knowledge and vision) becomes pure, so will the karma.
