Bhagavat Gita- Chap13, Verses 7-11
There are too many fusions & separations in the process of body formation.In every fusion there is birth; every separation marks a death also.The separation of the sperm from the father's body is the first one and when it enters the mother's womb first death occurs to the sperm.It takes birth when it enters ovum and forms the fertilized egg.As we all know all separations are sorrowful like leaving father's body.The foetus dies and the baby is born! It is difficult for us to imagine births and deaths in the way the sages have depicted.This stage causes a lot of anxiety, tension and a defensive response though it happens in an unconscious state.This is also an occasion when two strong powers that are deeply embedded in the Ego according to Freud.which he mentions in 'Ego and Id.'
When the man separates himself from his parents and goes after comforts, desires and luxury, unhappiness inevitably follows him.He often asks himself' Who am I?'' What's mine?' and 'What's not mine?'Pride of a person makes him feel he has to be respected and treated differently by others. This feeling floats in the conscious state of the person. But when you become one among the crowd, your individuality loses its relevance. That's the occasion when one becomes boastful and bragging. Jean-Paul Sartre calls this 'Existential Ego'
Swami Yeti Nithya Chaitaniya highlights the fact that 3000 years ago our seers discovered the subtle nature of our mind with all its nuances. Freud and other psycho analysts could explain the phenomenon of Ego only after thousands of years!
