Ego

Another time I asked him, "Babuji, why do you want us to write to you about whatever we have to tell you? Why this idea of confession when you know everything?" He said, "It is true I can know everything. I don't always know everything, but I can, if I want to." So then I said, "Why then do you want us to write to you?" He said, "you know, when you are able to open yourself up and to confess (in a sense, because anything you say about yourself is tantamount to a confession), it shows that your ego is being whittled down to proper proportions, and that is what I want to see!"
