In reading this forum, I am sometimes struck by the amount of intense ego I see. ( I am no acception ).
Please reread your post, count the number of referrals to yourself ( I, me, my, my power, my money etc... ).
No judgement here, but I do see EGO. Maybe I am misunderstanding the quote I quoted above. |
Let me rephrase. My Ego is very much still with me, as with anyone else. However, I went through a transformational 90 day period where my TRUE SELF (Spirit) triumphed over my Ego self through a process I learned from a book by Stuart Wilde. It's basically a process of "taming" your Ego to put it back in check in your life.
What does this amount to in practical terms? My ego's need for comfort no longer takes precedence over my spirits desire to do it's work. It's a bit hard to explain, but there has been a HUGE shift in my level of consciousness since going through this journey. Lets just say there was a lot of agony, and I have come out a much stronger person on the other side.
If I could give an analogy/metaphor of what I mean, imagine that before my spiritual side was a 20-30% shareholder in my life, and my Ego owned 70% of the shares. Yes Ego had to occasionally listen to the other "shareholders", but at the end it had voting power. Now, imagine that my true self has purchased a controlling interest of shares (for example 51%) so IT now has the power to do what it wants in my life. Shares owned by ego are still there, but they no longer have as much power as they did before.
That's the best analogy I could come up with.
Does that explain it at all? I know my original post wasn't written the best way.
