EGO-Always Trying to Edge God Out

After receiving a post today from a dear friend about EGO, I decided to write about it. For me, the goal is not to get rid of the EGO but to tame that sucker.  I have heard..."the ego makes a great slave and a terrible master".  We can only serve one Master.(that is unless you have a wife lol)  One can easily tell if the EGO is running things....Life will suck!  Judgment, attachment, worry, fear etc are all symptoms of an EGO that is running the show.  I can joyfully say that I no longer consciously have those symptoms (unconscious is another story), yet I know I still have quite an active EGO. Duh!  The word EGO has also been used as an acronym for trying to Edge God Out. There truly is only room for one master. We return to heaven when we commit fully to God/Spirit/Source/Intelligence and use the EGO only to explore and play with during this earthy experience. My adopted son is an atheist and still he surrenders to "what is" and believes that everything since the Big Bang is already scripted. He is one of the least judgmental people I know. Yet, we are surrounded by New Thought folks who believe in an all loving, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient (all the omnis) God and most can't have one conversation without saying or thinking judgments, ie. making something or someone wrong. There are many Spiritual and/or Intellectual paths that point to this Peace of Mind. Actually at their core, most spiritual teaching probably point to this heavenly state. Unfortunately, since the experience of God/Peace/Freedom is impossible to share, all teachings are made up by the teachers (or their scary-ass followers) in order to describe the indescribable.  That's precisely why The Script is purposely so simple and easy to understand on first reading.  It's time for a new Spiritual path that is not confusing. It's time for a teaching that immediately upon embracing, destroys judgment, attachment, worry, anxiety, fear, and control. I believe The Script is part of the New Consciousness, the New Earth and 2012.  Then again, we'll have to wait and see what's scripted. lol  Life.......what an adventure! Crikey....

  1. The EGO is seen as a tool for spiritual development in contemporary Kabbala. In order to evolve we need to recognize and engage our shortcomings. In time, we learn to tame and utilize the levers.

    Too many spiritual traditions demonize the ego, in effect denying our human reality and resulting in spiritual stagnation
