Eliminating Ego

by Angela Lumley

 

 We are not born with ego at all. Ego is taught and

 

learned through experiences. An infant is not aware

 

of self until it sees its reflection in the mirror and then

 

has to be told what the reflection is. To be without ego

 

is to be unaware of self and just being in the moment

 

of here and now. No judgement no labels. Without ego

 

nothing can affect us. Ego only looks for attention and

 

needs to be noticed as well as looks for a reaction.

 

Without ego there is freedom. Everyone has their own

 

perception, making everyone's reality different in the

 

way they perceive it. No one can tell someone they are

 

wrong, but they can remain open to others viewpoints

 

and then if it resonates that would become their truth

 

as well. If you take a little bit of what everyone says

 

or teaches, you will find some truth in it all.

 

Acceptance is the answer. In the end everyone has to

 

come to their own realization.
