When Bhagavad Gita states that ahankara is above buddhi it means that ahankara is more subtle than buddhi, not that ahankara is more intelligent than buddhi. Ahankara is so subtle that it is hard to detect even by a man of great intelligence. The brahmanas are the most intelligent, still they are under the influence of ahankara - the ahankara of thinking they are brahmanas and very intelligent. ys, jdd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
