HEAVEN ON EARTH MARKS THE END OF ‘EGO SUPREMACY’
“The real cause of human suffering lies in the lack of education (social awareness) about the ‘ego’ and how it controls our inner perception (without being detected).”
-Anon I mus (Spiritually Anonymous)
THE EGO
From the time that we were little children, we began to form mental images of who we think we are. This is a fictional identity based on self-preservation and our personal/cultural conditioning. When we identify with this mind-made self (body-mind entity), we are functioning in ‘ego-mode’. None of us are born with an ‘ego’ (social mask), it is learned; an identity of our own mental construction that was built into the fabric of how we see, think, speak, feel and behave. We are constantly seeking power, validation and the approval of others; our thinking and behavior is always in anticipation of a response (it is fear-based). The ego is an investment or identification to a false image/belief about yourself. The unchecked ego is a mind virus that hacks into our personal identity/story and distorts our worldview. The real cause of human suffering is holding onto false beliefs and narratives that we are limited, powerless, defective, worthless, fearful and disconnected beings from each other and the universe as a whole. To protect our distorted self-image, we unconsciously think and act out behaviors that are the exact opposite of what we internalized in order to ‘compensate’ for our sense of lack. Like any virus, the ego needs a host to survive (you) by forcing us to mutate, seducing us into identifying with it. To transcend the mental prison of our egoic programming is to be aware of how it functions inside us (through detached mindfulness) and remove our vital energy from it.
