7/18/13 The Ego

The power that seems to come from being selfish is the nature of the ego.
It is born of fear for that is how it has to be.
When the ego is afraid it will help to protect the self.
If the ego had no fear it would be daring and take many risks, leading the self into danger.
The best way to handle the ego is to allow it to be bold when feeling safe but humble and naive when feeling intimidated.
The ego is there as your barometer to help you to grow.
Understanding its temperament can gain you back control.
The ego should not take all control but be there to help the self change and grow.
Learning how to live that way will be a discipline that will help you know that we are all in this together managing to get along not trying to defeat each other.

Namaste
