    Ego


    This ad goes away when you register.
    Rue is right ego is the killer here. You must release your ego and competition these are bad things. See if your competing you can never find your true self and it might be tough to know who you truely are and it might take a long time to develop your true self not your american self. See this country and all country have a ideal person and we cut off our self to make sure we meet their standards. Right now the Government and buisness cant agree on the ideal american in other words the system is falling apart. I'm going to make this into a blog so we can talk more about this important isssue. See when you dont as they have programed the ideal person they do not know what to do. Most people have a limited amount of answers that is why alot of peoople are quiet when you ask them a complicated question or say that you are way to serieous or way to deep. People say this becuase they have not the conversation skills to reach that level but their ego and competition will not allow them to say this.
    Ego to me seems as though it is a energy demon living in millions at one time enjoying competition. Look at what is going on with tv today i personally dont watch it anymore but. Basically you have gladiator sports on such as full body boxing and such. All that happens is two people go in the ring hurt each other alot and the producer makes all the money and sends the next two people in there over and over agian.
    If there is competition going on that means to me that there is a goal set that america has made and you should reach it. Usually the goal is unreachable thats the game, but they will show you a few people of each race to show that all people can reach the goal which is fake. For example the whole idea of the american dream is a hoax number one you pay taxes, number two social security is going away, number three there is not enough jobs for all the people in america especially now that every thing is computer generated.
    I personally like to be poor because no one wants to bother you. You dont have to deal with a ton of bills life is a lot quieter being poor. If you are wealthy some one is always wanting what you have or idealizing you or following you. The government always wants more of your money unless you are part of one of their special clubs that you dont have to pay anything. To me being poor is just having a few things and focusing on them such as meditation and spiritualism and such. Thats not for every one just for me in my world and I am not competing with any one so I am happy. Find your happiness that is the real game were does it lay and wait for you. I truelly understand why meditation must be practiced almost every day now. You dont get to good parts until you have made the effort but that is my spiritual journey you might find what i have in your first few days of trying.
    Anyway remember its your ego that makes you angry at others when they do something you think is better than you can do or they win and you wish it was you. But the truth is that we are all different and it is not possible for you to do exactly what another person has done. We are all different and we need to explore who we are personally and let amerian dream goal reaching go because it was just a game for the little people us the civilians. They reaally dont care much for us for they feel they are better and smarter. But if you believe that look at your country now and you can tell what better and smarter has gotten them into..



    Each one of us are smart and important in our own way we have to find that and no one can do it for us. We are all alike and disalike at the same time see we have a familiar shape but our conscience and souls are all idealistically different and unique. Find your self explore different things get out of your same old comfortable peer group that you dont like any way and go and meet people that you like no matter what the peers and tv say. Do what you want not what you are told I dont neeed some 80 year man with a funny suit called a senator or governer or president to tell me anything he is not me!!!!!!

    Brilliant Post Light Thank you, this is one of the most challenging topics for all Lightworkers and one that has a ton of misinformation and confusion, btw you cannot have a healthy ego or a healed ego/ ego is seperation and isolation. In order for us to all become one again, the ego must be transcended and returned back to source. ego is an illusion and edging god out. Wayne Dyer said that one!

    You are absolutly correct, the soul has no ego and we are not sure why so many want to hang onto it instead of just being the Heart/soul Selves..Thank you for your wisdom. Love to you and all Lia AMeil and AMerith WhiteEagle

    I like to be me, and I don't want to be you. Is thats what you call ego?

    Ego in spanish is just to be selfish, I think is selfish to take somebodies identity to make a copy of your identity over them.

    I don't see that as being one, I see that as being brainless copies of a stupid that has such a big ego that requires mounstrous amounts of worshiping for its ego.

    Thats You.

    bullshit colored: but it's encased within another layer of ass
    There is nothing wrong with an ego.

    In fact, the very idea of soul v.s. ego seems rather ironic from a pro-soul, anti- ego standpoint.
    The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.

    thank you Roier....

    quite honestly ive been really freaked out lately because im seeing and hearing one personality in a group of people. i mean its really sad because i find beauty in being yourself and not mirroring someone else's words...im a writer and my words are art...

    i suggest finding your own from within your heart.

    All of you I thank you for your comments and thoughts. I purely do not want to step on any ones toes. I believe being a individual and ego are two different things that I do not tie toghether. Also I believe that sensuality and ego are two different things as well as enjoyment of goood drugs such as pot and beer are enjoyment and not connected to ego. I believe that ego tries to take over when we are enjoying something and makes people beligerant drunks or crazy on things and that is why some people say I cant remember last night at alll. Or when people get into fights they say I just blanked out but the body kept going I believe that ego is taking control.

    But of course this is just my opinion.

    hm.. i agree with you WhiteEagles.. i think that ego can be only calmed down.. so it doesnt trouble you and arent excessive..

    so there is no good from him afterall.. because how wide and smart it would be.. it will be still limited in some way.. i dont want to talk about it like a different part.. but it is different part in some way.. like already mentioned that soul and ego is not the same and cant be healtgy together.

    it`s like in the same time it is part of you and also something who arent you truly.. it is hard to explain :\

    hmm yep when ego takes control you can feel.. that it is going ahead like without you.. with problems too.. you already stopped to think and worry about problem but someone is still forcing you to think about it and to worry..

    i cant explain it from all sides like i would like to explain it.. because my language is limited and the so the text looks like one-sided, whenever it was multilateral.

    I can't tell you how many times I have witnessed the shocking and often frightening transformation of a human personality when faced squarely with the truth of its own division, hypocrisy and deceit: in an instant, a warm, intelligent, sensitive, apparently caring personality can change, becoming the face of pure ego, glaring with narcissistic rage because it has been exposed. It is because of many experiences like this that I have spent countless hours thinking about the questions: What is the personality? Who is the individual? It seems that in the end it really is black-and-white, simply because who we are depends upon where our allegiance lies. Is it with the narcissistic ego? Or is it with the spiritual heart? Of course, we can only really find out the answer to that question when we are tested because otherwise it's inevitable that the truth of our own condition will remain obscured, masked by self-concepts that are based on the ego's need to always see itself in a positive light—even if it sees itself as a victim.
    Who we are and how we perceive our own experience and the world around us depend upon where our allegiance lies. The perspective of the individual who has surrendered the will of their own ego to their spiritual heart is drastically different from the perspective of one who has not. But it is important to understand that because the ego can usurp any calling of the human soul in order to remain in control—even the longing for liberation—it's usually impossible to tell exactly who it is who is claiming they want to be free until that moment when their faith and love for truth alone are put to the test. It is only then that we can actually find out who we really are and what part of our self is pulling the strings of our own destiny.
    To walk the spiritual path in earnest is to find out what we're made of and how much we are truly willing to give up in order to come to the end of division within ourselves. The price for that kind of profound and deeply liberating simplicity is too high for most, because that price is ego death. What does that mean? That means endeavoring with all our being to purify ourselves from any and every attachment, gross and subtle, to the narcissistic ego, that demon of false individuality that masquerades as our own self and whose task it is to keep us, at all costs, separate from our own heart.

    I saw a lady attacked by the police today and that is what I call being attacked that is what they are doing. I notice now that the police force is hiring only egotistic narcissisitic people that will do anything that they are told. I was thinking to myself I should have done somethihng but what I realized is that is what they want you to get involved so they can shoot and show that they have ultimate domination in this world. See what I come to realize is this and almost every country is really pushing for every one to be egotisitical its on all the shows most important to america CSI. Its a bunch of super dressed people that will make sure your kids want to be a cop like them in the future. If this country looses egotistical people its demons are through president governer cops lawyers are pretty much legal murderers hiding behind laws and fake honesty. If ego was not so great why is it that a bishop or priest that molest hundreds of children are free because of a cardinal law.I dont caare what religion a person is that is wrong.

    I do want women to read this part please. Listen to what I have to say and think about it. It is no common coincidence that now womes freedoms are on the march it is on purpose. See alot of men now that fell into the trap of I am a man the toughest thing in the world has realized a lot of their wrong doing and ego is not the same as it was twenty years ago. So now it is time to release the pressure that has been held on women and make them powerful and let all of their oppressed fury out. This is bad because the release will be negative agianst the ordinary people not the courts and the old laws. Womens power will be released on the poor and such because they feel as though they are moving up a totem pole that was not for them before.
    I know how this works becuase they did it to the blacks twenty years ago and allowed rap and angry music and such now that is over. Before that they gave the power to the minoritys that came from asia and such by giving them grants to start stores in ghettos and such. Then they did the same to the gays. Now it is time for the women this is not agianst womens rights but to see if the women can turn thier anger agianst the right people which would be the government and its tricks.
    The feds and government try to get us all to turn on each other from decade to decade while they sell the guns and run the money and make money from the both sides in the fight.
    For example I am for sure that all the ganster and such on the streets are taking a submarine to other countries to get weapons and drugs. Lol hehehehehehehehhehe

    Saying that you don't have an ego is ego it self.

    Is like the one who call himself wise is stupid.

    Is like saying you don't have any of the 7 sins.

    We all have them, you can order them from the one you have the most to the one you have the less, but everybody has it, some more than others, thats a big part of what makes your personality, the one that says don't have it, is just silly, liying itself.

    What is to be aware, to realize that you can lie to your self, or liying your self telling you that you don't have an ego?.

    By the way, I am not saying that sins are good, I am just saying that is good to be aware that we are not perfect, aware of where we are, to find our selfs to move in the direction we really desire and not the opossite.

    Ego is more like PRIDE.

    Egotistical derives from Ego (I deserve more than the rest).
