You are correct, but the funniest thing and I am telling you when you find this out you will laugh. Those people are literally YOU living another life. So the absolute truth is whatever they do or anybody does for that matter is exactly what you would do if you were them. As humans the only separation is the emotional interpretation of our life story we are always carrying which is the birth of our mindset, and the experience of our physical body. This is the birth of the I am a person. This person is only asleep as different when they are disconnected from heart, from their love for themselves and all of creation. The desire for all of creation to thrive, is the love that unites us all.

The only corruption is thinking that accomplishments like money and social status equals your worth. This is the biggest issue in the human world and is the reason God as all of these humans struggles to feel like it belongs. The secret why you matter? Cause you are the only one here. Existence, Life, is a miracle which means you are a miracle. The path to a healthy mindset is to realize that you are so valuable that nothing you do can add to your value because your value is Infinity. Understanding this and accepting this isn't ego, what is ego is believing that your value is more important than some part of creation. Competition inherently produces ego which is why human society is an ego creation machine.

He means well but he hasn't progressed far enough yet is the only issue. He doesn't understand that the NO SELF=The SELF yet. If you don't understand that the Little self is =THE SELF and can only ever understand itself in relation to THE SELF then you will demonize all conceptual knowledge not realizing that the little self = A Concept. So the little self cannot escape its concepts....because all it is made of is actualized concepts.

Yeah and the path to that realization is Self-Honesty, you have to pour your heart out to your heart, for your heart to awaken within. God is your true heart within.

All of experience can be seen as One Object, every something that is currently existing. As such The Self is purely objective, it is its own purpose in the making and sustaining of it. Then there is the smaller self, the self that experiences the big Self and its purpose is to expertly align its meaning, its subjectivity with the object, thus becoming pure subjectivity. This means you have achieved perfect communication with and within the Field of Consciousness around you because your hierarchal mental judgments no longer obscure your view. Once this is achieved God is awakened that all it is doing is Sharing its big Self with its little self, with the toughest lesson of all being, the definition of true strength which is vulnerability, which is the ability to be weak, to have limits and accept them as they are. Understand that all of life are equal gladiators in this arena of survival called life and as a result are all equally deserving of respect. True Adulthood is recognizing that all life is noble, because it must ultimately equally navigate a world of survival. This is where the sovereignty of all life is birthed from. This can only be achieved by recognizing that all of life is its own celebrity worthy of celebration and if its not being recognized it just means that greatness is hidden in one of the greatest disguises.

Mark Manson is a very smart guy, I've followed him for years before he had his breakthrough moment. He's pretty popular now but there are some people who still don't know about him. Check him out, who knows his perspective might help you. https://markmanson.net/paradoxes-that-are-true

I was talking about ivankiss....I swear people on the forum do not carefully read. And yes I've woken up I'm only here to share at this point.

I hear what your saying but its not some dead programing. The ego is tied to your intellectual and emotional system, you can literally trigger biological functions when you mess with it. The ego is literally, metaphysically made of love, a tangled web of love. And also that conditioning gets updated constantly. The conditioning is not the problem, its a lack of awareness of what conditioning is and how it operates. Its goes like this.....if you are beholden to the ego you have no freedom cause the program will run its course, but if you are aware then you can always reprogram the program because you are aware of it. Also....your programming isn't shit, well not all of it anyway lol.

You have a lot of work to do. You are so unaware that your entire message has been, I don't care about the intentions of your thread, I just want to cause some mischief because I am bored. It's good to know....I'll just add you to my ignore list. I only communicate with people who actually give a damn. Something...you are lacking in.....

Robert Adams was a bit eccentric. He claims to have had super powers when he was a kid. He also had a vision of Ramana Maharshi and went to India to find him in person and presented himself to Ramana....butt naked. Crazy story huh? He stayed there for awhile before returning to the States and getting married. Now with that said.....it's not as simple as predestination. Predestination implies there is a future, and that there are fixed paths. There are no fixed paths, what is more accurate to say is conditioning plays itself out. A cat will be a cat, a dog will be a dog. But humans are much more dynamic and complicated. What is more accurate is....the ego doesn't control anything, but the ego is given control. So you do have control it is just limited and that limitation is not under your control. You do have free will it is just limited and the control of how limited is not under your control. For example: You could all of a sudden develop some rare unheard of disorder this very moment and be stuck with it. Also someone could develop a cure for that disorder next year and you get cured. Or....you are the rare exception where that cure does not take effect. So yeah....you pretty much just got to accept things as they come.

1. I already know what ego is I have written extensively what it is. 2. I posted this because I have seen that everyone has differing takes on what the ego is. 3. You actually don't know what ego is because right now you are acting out of ego. This is a thread I have created for a specific purpose. To raise awareness on the differing takes on what ego is in the Spiritual Community. But look at your response, your response reeks of a KNOW IT ALL MENTALITY that completely ignores what I am saying. You do this because you are impatient and close-minded and instead of acknowledging your error you double down and repeat the same point. 4. I am not asking for people's personal definition, I'm asking for how their personal definition of ego DIFFERS from Aaron's and Leo's. So stop making assumptions and actually learn how to LISTEN. You have a listening problem and a reading comprehension problem, this is because you assume your point of view is Superior. I don't have that issue. It's why I post links of people because I honor different perspectives.

The whole point of this post was to share differing perspectives on what the ego actually is. If you didn't watch either video...your post becomes pointless. You basically posted just to gain attention and ignored the entire point of this thread. This is a reaction thread. Watch the content and then give your thoughts, not just give your opinion point blank. Most people already have their own definition of what ego is, the point of this thread was to see where you agree or disagree with Leo and Aaron Akbe's take.

Before Spirituality I helped people because I tried putting myself in their shoes and seeing it from their perspective. After Spirituality I know that you are me. I'll give a good analogy. Think of every human being as a vehicle, the vehicles are different, but the driver is the SAME. Now extrapolate human to all animate an inanimate objects....same driver within. So you are me, living another life at the same time as me as another human being. So why would I not want to help myself? Who knows one day you may get far enough in this work where you realize that I am YOU. But yeah go for it, write that book and let us know about it.

There's a reason that he says this people. The YOU he refers to is the ego, and the ego very intelligently co-opts ownership over awareness, over consciousness, and as a result sometimes you have to speak the way he does. But make no mistake God is also the ego, what do you think constructed the ego? God created the ego, and its God that will have to awaken from its slumber that it is not the ego. The problem? God is the greatest actor, the greatest performer, the greatest creator of all time. When God plays pretend, it completely fools itself. How? Because of the power of love. God loves its performance so much it takes it very seriously and is completely bought in, and this is what we call your life. One exercise you can do to deconstruct is to see your ego as an artificial intelligence that is masking the authentic intelligence that lurks within. After all God is pure authenticity.

lol

What I bolded in your statement is partly why we are here. We are here to offer up our perspective as a part of Infinity. The other part is to enjoy the ride of life.

That was beautiful. The love can get deeper.....if you dare lol.

Knock Knock I invite you, Come closer take this walk with me, I want you to see not with your eyes but through me, Feel the wind at my back, the fatigue in my shoulders, I’m fighting to survive against Life’s vice grip that’s trying to hold us. Success I’m asking how, when? I’m saying now, impatient? You right if you only knew, how long this road been and what I’ve been through, I chased fools’ gold I thought was true, given opportunities that I constantly pursued, I got fed up and started investigating, talking to people and started relating, I formed a new strategy and went out and started creating, It gave me something to do, each road I start anew, look back I’m playing the fool, New destinations, the mystery unnerves me, I shudder when something jumps out at me, but not only that, matter of fact, I sometimes can’t even sit down and relax, I wish I knew, what the future was, getting mad at my lack of control, I point my index finger at fate, and watch as self doubt emanates, looking at me like I’m funny, fate you are a missile, going super speed, chaos the broken creed, this constant inner journey', come with me if you dare, but don’t get offended I am funnily weird so I’ll forgive you if you stare.

You do realize this is the personal development section? Also his perspective is good for navigating survival. And also without realizing it he points to Infinity by pointing out how life is paradoxical.

I'm glad you are clearing up this for people on the forum. When I broke through I felt like you didn't emphasis enough that the barrier was having to drop your distinction between sanity and insanity. Too many people on these forums wanna maintain their human logic. I literally tell them that the reverse of every paradigm they come up with can exist and they fight me on it. When you witness in your experience all categories melt away even the whole notion of there being a relative truth at all melts away. This whole conflation of the absolute and the relative business can fall away as some appearance game God is playing with itself.

Try watching this. Maybe it will help.

Yeah he's wonderful. He really understands what I call a healthy mindset.

Many people on this forum are still stuck on the realm of appearance and on the belief that something exists. You were raised to believe you are something, you were raised to believe that something is more important than nothing. You would say I will not work for nothing, and you are afraid of losing something, and ultimately scare to lose everything you have, what you call life. But many people would ask what is nothing? Nothing is the absence of all qualia/qualities, because a quality is a something. Now I am going to give you an exercise so you can see Nothing in action. Go stand in front of a mirror. First smile in the mirror, now stop smiling. Notice that the smile was there...and then it disappeared. Now smile again. Notice you are controlling the appearance of the smile. When you stop smiling your smile disappeared. Now let's do this exercise. Close your eyes and imagine yourself smiling and then not smiling. Do this over and over. Do this until you realize....that change is a magic trick. It's no different than flipbook animation. All appearance is spawning out of nowhere right in front of you. Humanity should have realized this a long time ago the moment they invented photography. Now understand what it means to be unlimited. You cannot put a limit on a Mind, on nothing. Also you might ask, but how do I imagine nothing? Easy think of Deep Sleep. But when that happened I was gone until I woke up!!! Exactly....just like the first memory you have of your life!!!

If you are fully Conscious during deep sleep then its not Deep Sleep. True Deep Sleep is a momentary loss of Awareness. If you are aware in Deep Sleep, then you can call it Shallow Sleep lol.

Majority of your forum cannot handle that it's a hallucination. They are still arguing about Absolute Solipsism. I asked God why they can't handle it and God told me they are designed to be that way. The emotional work it takes to undo your programming is not something every part of God wants. Some would rather find out at physical death. But the crazy part is how they try to argue against it. I'm like just admit you don't really care about investigating Reality that deeply. Its simple say that, and it becomes clear to you how deep down the rabbit hole you want to go.
