Śrīla Prabhupāda defines this misconception as "false ego." In the pure state, the living entity is fully conscious of their eternal relationship with God, but when covered by material energy, this consciousness is distorted. The soul begins to think, "I am this body," and consequently, "everything related to this body is mine." This article explores the nature,..." current

It transforms into spiritual determination, enabling one to execute the rigorous discipline of ''tapasya''. Śrīla Prabhupāda emphasizes that this..." current

This dynamic creates a transcendental bond that protects the devotee and reveals the personal nature of the Ab..."
