In Sikhism, the ''Haumai'' can only be overcome through meditation on God’s name (''[[Naam]]''), ''[[Simran (Sanskrit word)|Simran]]'' and ''[[Selfless service|Sewa]]''. It is a combination of the words ''Hau'' (ਹਉ) meaning "I" and ''Mai'' (ਮੈ) meaning "me".

The opposite of ''Haumai'' is humility (or ''[[Nimrata]]''), which is considered a virtue in Sikhism. [[Selfless service]] called ''Seva'', and complete submission to [[Waheguru]], or God is the Sikh path to liberation.<ref name=cole9/>
