Need do nothing...and more on learning to love your ego

Just...Sit in a room for a whole week doing... absolutely nothing.
What will happen to us? Surely, we will neither die nor go insane.
I wonder, why does doing nothing causes so much fear?
I guess...doing nothing outlines the doer in an unmistakable way.
The best way to approach mind or to go beyond mind...is to do...simply... nothing....

Ron Alexander "The best way to approach mind or to go beyond mind...is to do...simply... nothing.." Now, does it not feel better to self to hear the word "mind" instead of the poor overused demonized "ego"?

Commentor: Learn to incude your ego in your self love, then you can truly love.

Tony Louis: And what is your ego and how will it help love, from your experience?

Ron Alexander Duality separates.

Ego: a person's sense of self-esteem or self-importance.
"a boost to my ego"
synonyms: self-esteem, self-importance, self-worth, self-respect, self-image, self-confidence
"the defeat was a bruise to his ego"

Ron Alexander Lack of self worth, one needs to feel worthy to be a productive member of society.

Ron Alexander Having a verbally abusive parent, teliing their child, "you are no good, worthless, lazy, will never make it in the world, etc" has a devastating effect on their sense of self. If one wants to call the self an "ego", even then the "ego" needs to be built up for the child to be mentally emotionally healthy. Again, balance is the key. Ironically, a weak sense of self is compensated by a "big ego.

Ron Alexander Your ego is innocently vital, as long as you are in your body. You could not have written this without it.

Ron Alexander Believing the ego is demonic part of yourself is like christians who believe that satan is part of them.

Ron Alexander Freud invented this concept, and he said the ego is the CONSCIOUS mediator between the id (our lower self) and our superego (our higher self).

Ron Alexander If you consider the ego your enemy, remember Jesus: Love your enemy.

Joya Sarkar The ego is identification with the false, ie believing you are the doer, believing you are the mind and the body. When you identify with the Self, the ego-mind withers and dies and you are left with the Heart-mind or practical mind.

Ron Alexander All what you wrote is true, if you are out of your mind and body, completely in the Spirit World. Are you ready to leave?

Jose Julio Boriss Wow, sounds like trump lol, I don't care if anyone is doing better than me, truth is we don't know, just because they have more things doesn't mean success or happiness. ..I know im the luckiest man in the world so everyone else can be too, when you win I win, I couldn't get this person to understand my happy when he beat me and I said when you win I win, I don't blame others for my errors however I do blame others for what they do to those they see as less...its v8ery complex the dance of the ego...for me it is simply put...to bad weather , good face...I accept that all is what it is, the all that is all that is.

Wow
