Why do we have an ego, and how can we make it really useful? You don"t have any part that is not useful!



I just had a "conversation" with a student, where I suggested that she uses ego to support her growth.

From her answers it has become clear that "using ego" is not a commonplace conversation, and that it needs instruction.

So let"s see what ego is, and what it isn"t.

Ego is a lot like a kitchen knife: you can use it for good, for useful, or for harm... kill with it. You can also use it to clean it under your nails... somewhat useful, but not the right tool...

You can also call it bad, and ban it from your house. ((It is also a lot like a nail. It concentrates the energy so it can go through thick planks of wood... or thick planks of resistance...))

I was looking for pictures for this article... in vain. All memes, all pictures said: do away with the ego, it"s bad.


You can see that this is a big conspiracy to strip you of your power. To turn you into powerless limp d-i-c-k. Without the go you are soft, with high aspirations and no power, no bones, no muscles, no strength.


Recognize yourself? Good... now get to work. Strengthen and direct ego to help you become worth a damn. It is never too late. Those who laugh last laugh best.


By the way, the people who are enlightened: got the joke played on them. Maybe that is what enlightenment is? Do you get the joke played on you?

Hey, I never said that ignorance is bliss... someone else said it. I believe that ignorance is not bliss, it is a hindrance.
