Problems are an Illusion of the Ego

[MisterMan]

So it's about observing the cause and affect nature of whats happening?

[Highest]

As long as you are alive and have food and water, there should be no problems. All problems therefore are self-inflicted, created by the ego-mind.

Ramana Maharishi understood this, he knew he was complete and already had the greatest gift, existence itself. No need for anything, no desire. This is the cause of problems.
