This time I would like to talk to you about what we call EGO. He gave me a lot of headaches! After many studies on his account, I will share my conclusions with you.
In many books it is said that the EGO is that "I want / I don't want, I like / I don't like". It is also said that when you succeed in transcending his desires, you will find liberation - absolute freedom! Give up what you call happiness or sadness, pleasure or pain. But how can you give up without repressing? You are still human and your entire survival system will fight! I can only tell you my story... I tried and always told myself that I don't have enough will, perseverance! That I'm lazy, that I'm weak. Until one day when I realized how wrong I understood everything I had read. It was like a revelation! I resumed the pieces and put them together to complete the puzzle. I can only transcend the Ego by accepting it as part of me, fulfilling it. Like a fruit that will fall alone from the tree only after it has ripened. An immature EGO cannot be overcome... ! And I would like to emphasize this aspect again and again because, for many years, I suffered not understanding what to do. I also noticed that once I realized this, my life had improved considerably. It’s said that what is inside you also comes from outside to you, but not to punish you in any way, but to help you realize that it is time to make a change, to look more closely and to asks yourself WHY. It's what I call KARMA, it's what I call the "MIRROR EFFECT". What is around you shows you what you are - what exists inside you. And if there is self-blame in you, but also the conviction that you must always be able, that you are not allowed to be weak, that you must be a good man..., well, then Life/Universe/God (whatever you choose to call him ) will send you situations over and over again to ask you if these beliefs really work for you.
You may not agree with me, but I have long hated my ego. I just hated him and just wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible! And the people the universe has brought into my life have confirmed that. I received all the disapproval I gave myself. I wanted so much to be accepted as I am, while I despised myself. At the level of my human emotions and thoughts, I tried to be a kind of "Jesus Christ" for those I loved. Today I have chosen to be just me - a simple man. And it feels so good!
