WILLIAMSJI MAVELI Writes, When We Play Sacred ....

When we play sacred , when we pretend to be pure, or when we play bad we fail to do what we need to do, and instead we only do what we want to do—in other words, we only do what our mind and ego tells us to do. When we are ruled by our mind and ego we are not free, no matter how much we pretend to be free. When we are ruled by our mind and ego we look for validity in the world of duality and always, always fall prey to sensuality.
All of us are temporarily crazy, but some people are temporarily crazy all the time. When our mind is infected with ego we are temporarily crazy, but when the ego-infection is removed with wisdom we get over our ego and become better—we become ourselves. But some persons refuse to fasten down with themselves, and they remain victims of their ego. They go through this life following the whims of the mind and never gain any lasting stability. They die for their pleasures while living in pain, and in the end they lose everything and gain nothing.
 Our soul is the cause and the origin of body and mind of all living creatures. This standalone soul is the part of the entire universal spirit of we call God. Hence, the physical and entire functions of a person are governed exclusively by the soul.
