Lauren Nicole Garceau Ron Alexander as well as projecting our beliefs on others is a week sense of self. In fact a week sense of self becomes addicted to being right and will do anything it can covert or blatant to make sure it’s projections are seen. Sadly they are a week humans shadow lands unkept and not accounted for.

Ron Alexander Yes, taking things personally is an excellent demonstration of someone , who calls themselves "sensitive",who needs to develop a stronger ego(sense of self).

Lauren Nicole Garceau Ron Alexander what a great example! Brilliant in fact. Weakness compliments the need to defend. Egos charade when there is no-one here to play the part in its comedy.

‘What’s fun.’ Ego will kick your ass ‘for calling it’s bluff; eventually you just hang out with it’s ‘brat attacks.’”

Ron Alexander The ego is not our enemy, we need one to survive in this world, Freud who invented the ego concept, defined it as the Conscious connection between the id (our lower self) and the Superego (our rational self). The key is keeping the ego balanced. A weak sense of self can develop a too strong of an ego to compensate. Or one with low ego can just be a pansy and be the "victim of the world we see." Unconditional love for self includes our ego, or we are living in a dualistic world, such as fundamentalist religious zealots who blame every thing on the devil. No part of us is junk,😍
Ron Alexander I have hung out with Masters, who have supposedly let go of their egos, however they need lots of servants for help in their daily lifes like eating, dressing, going to the bathroom etc.. A prison is a good place to let go, if you are in solitary, the guards will take care of you. Read Meher Baba's discourses on the need to develop an ego, until one has a strong enough connection with Spirit, to let it go. I have spent alot of time at his Center, and he is surely there in Spirit, but his body is long gone. Leaving your body is the best way to let go of the ego, maybe the only way for most of us.
