It  
is the mind that weaves a pattern called “I” - the process by which it  
establishes the ego and elaborates it into a multitude of shackles which
  is called delusion. The mind prompts the senses to project into the  
outer world of objects, for it builds up notions of pleasure and pain,  
of joy and grief and constructs a whole array of urges and impulses. It 
 resists all attempts to escape into the Eternal, Universal, and the  
Absolute. It protests when the individual is eager to become conscious  
of one’s identity. But when it finds that the individual is determined  
to oppose its tactics, it surrenders and disappears without a trace!  
Diminish your desires – you will be free from delusion. Desire comes  
from attachment – deliverance comes from detachment!
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
