(Sanskrit अहङ्कार, also ahankara) Literally, “pride, egotism, conception of one’s individuality, individualization, arrogance, etc.” From अहम् aham, “I.” Hindu philosophies use the word ahankara in varying ways, not always negative. At its base, ahankara is simply the perception of being “separate.” Yet this perception quickly develops into egotism.
Ahi
(or Ah-hi; Sanskrit अहि) In ancient literature, Ahi can have many meanings depending upon usage: a snake, the serpent of the sky, the demon Vritra, a cloud, water, the sun, a traveller, the navel, lead, or (in arithmetic) the number eight. In Theosophy, the term Ah-hi is defined as “the serpents or dragons of wisdom,” a reference to realized Beings. In the Germanic Eddas, the Dragon is called Ahti.
