Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed. ― Dalai Lama XIV

President Obama at the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner
think there are various definitions of Ego afoot. The Course in Miracles talks about Ego as being that part of the being that believes that it is separate from God. That seems to be fairly close to what is addressed here.
Ron Alexander: I understand Barb. and that has become a fairly standardized definition of it. However, Freud invented the term as the Conscious Mediator between the id (instinctual self) and the Super Ego (the Higher Self). We all need a healthy ego, and Obama demonstrated that with brilliance last night at the Press Dinner. Did you see it?
