What is ahamkara?

Ahamkara is a Sanskrit word meaning “I-maker.” Its root word aham translates as “self” and kara (from kri) means “doing” or “acting.” Thus, ahamkara is the self that is doing or the personality associated with this individual body.

In Yoga psychology, the ahamkara is what creates our personality structure and individuated existence.
