Balancing the Ego

Image

In spiritual practice, ego is viewed as the “bad guy” causing us all sorts of havoc, delusions, and addictions. When we awaken, we begin to understand ego’s control over us.  The truth is that ego evolved to protect us from carnivore predators, danger, and to help us survive.

However, during the course of evolution, the ego has become so dominant that it has begun to control every aspect of our human existence on earth. For instance, we wage wars against others who we perceive to be unlike us to be the enemy.  We try to control the natural world because it is perceived somehow to have an opposing interest to human needs and survival.  Our collective human ego must conquer the world including, space, the oceans, and unknown because we perceive those as separate from us that we then must dominate.

Now in our human evolution is the time to begin to find balance for our collective human ego. However, ego must be done individually with each of us. When we change ourselves, we change the world, as it is said.  We first must begin by releasing our own ego, in our need to control, to separate, to compare, to judge, to criticize, and to find an enemy without. To begin your practice of releasing ego, please see my tab on my blogsite on “Observing Ego Practice.”

The true enemy is the ego within us that we must begin to bring into balance.  Once we bring balance to our own egos, we will begin to bring balance to the collective ego for the human race. Peace and love, Brooke (Copyright 2013 Kundalini Spirit with All Rights Reserved)
