You impose limits on your true nature of infinite being. Then you get displeased to be only a limited creature. Then you begin spiritual practices to transcend these non-existing limits. But if your practice itself implies the existence of these limits, how could they allow you to transcend them.
Ramana MaharshiThat is the ego which rises and sinks periodically. But you exist always. That which lies beyond the ego is consciousness - the Self.
