"The ego, however, is not who you really are. The ego is your self-image; it is your
social mask; it is the role you are playing."
Deepak Chopra
Ego seeks control and needs to be fed. It can be self-centered and highly judgmental. Rather than feeling equal, it wants to feel superior. The ego can work against us doing great damage attacking our self-worth with misinterpretation. Fear manipulates the course of the ego, striving for control and a greater sense of power.
With an open heart and compassion, we can dismantle the false ego. As we distance ourselves from false persceptions, we begin to see the mystery in life. We witness the kindness of others and adjust our vision, releasing inner anger. We find ourselves breathing in a fresh understanding of life and what it truly means.
Through inner reflection, we strengthen our connection with all that is sacred. Invocations and routine rituals will keep us connected with our soul. This of course impacts our daily actions, allowing us authentic behaviors. If we maintain a spiritual connection and inner awareness of motivation, ego will no longer be running the show.
