24 Powerful Keys to Transcend the Ego
The Ego is the central figure of our personal history, based upon the past and looking into the future. It is a dissatisfied, possessive small ego that often makes our life a misery. It is for certain that this small ego–or, more precisely, what we believe is our Self, our Ego–coiled up tightly in the back of our mind, is responsible for a tremendous amount of senseless and unnecessary suffering and destruction in the history of mankind. On our spiritual Journey arises the question, how we transcend the Ego?
Here are 24 Keys to transcend the Ego
- The Ego is not bad, it is simply unconscious.
- The Ego is responsible for the integrity of the personality, for our inner well-being.
- The Ego only pursues its own dreams and ambitions, and so it very often embitters our life.
- The components of the Ego are thoughts, emotions, memories (with which the person identifies as “my story”), fixed unconscious roles and collective identifications (nationality, religion, etc.). Most people completely identify with these components of the Ego, and for them no self “outside” of this exists.
