The Universal Ego



“O, Lord Jagannatha! Grant me a boon
As a return to this temple I built.
See that my family goes extinct
So that no person is left behind
Even in the distant future to claim
That this temple by an ancestor
Of him was built and takes the credit.”

A prayer from King Indradyumma
To the Lord Jagannath, Puri, India,
After building the present temple,
Serves for all a supreme example
For a complete total surrender
With negation of ego in absolute
Terms to realize the Universal Ego.
