The Ego is the most questioned and misunderstood part of the metaphysical
journey. Defining what the Ego is can be far easier than conquering it. The Ego is
your proverbial blessing and curse. It is your identity as an individual and must be
developed in order to advance your consciousness. This identity is what separates
you from the masses and allows you to stand unique. While the separation or
uniqueness is ultimately an illusion, it is a necessary part of your development in
order to recognize theinternal spiritual being used to develop your higher
consciousness. The ego is an insecure and unpredictable character with an
insatiable appetite. Its primary motivation is self-importance. It is also the primary
drain on your energy and the power you possess. The ego is imagination and
memory rolled into one and is protected and driven by the self. This is not you, but
an extension of the illusion of you. The ego hates change and unpredictability,
wanting to be comfortable and follow a routine at all cost. That is how it maintains
the illusion and control.
The egos number one fear is extinction or death; therefore, it sucks your energy like
a vampire, attempting in every way imaginable to make it real. Do you want to
know if you are being driven by your ego? Then ask yourself these simple
questions… how many times on a daily basis do I defend myself?, protect or correct
my self-image?, or attempt to win approval for myself or my ideas?
The eldest of three children, I was raised in rural Illinois. A college graduate, I chose
a career path in the medical field. Married and divorced, I guided two children to
adulthood. From a very early age I have known of a strong spiritual presence in my
life and I feel privileged to share their guidance. For more inspirational writings
