You could have at least for his benefit give a brief explanation about your philosophy of why ego is bad. And define it so that he'll be able to comprehend the said "ego" Your talking about.
Did I say your a sheep? If you think you are, then I guess you are. Do I scare you? That is not my intention, it is to emphasize caution. In the real world, people are not nice and Disney like. It's best to wake up early rather than later.
P.s. I'm not here to debate about the ego, I'm here to emphasize that you need to explain it, so that the TS can decide for himself. |
Maybe if you read my post you'd know. I clearly & simply stated the ego (in parenthese [srry spelling]) beside "the voice in your head" also known as thoughts.
To explain what ego is , doesnt need a 300page book. The ego loves to think about past & future, hence TS is identified with ego. To not identify with ego is to be attentive, (nonreactively observe w/o thinking) of the moment including the thoughts that arise itself, the emotion that you feel and the results that come up.
And sorry for my misunderstanding. I thought you were referring me as a sheep. I apologize again. However, when I read many of your posts it's obvious you think some members here are in fact sheeps.
I accept that.
