Ego is what designs the creation, it is God's face. 

Design your desired ego and create your desired reality. 

Ego is reality

The Manifesting/Law of Assumption/Neville Goddard version of "You are God" is different from the Non-Duality version of "You are God".

Manifesting definitely works but it has a lot of flaws and can make you think that "getting what you want" is the end of spiritual growth.

"Manifesting what you want" is not the end of the road.

It is a fun metaphysical place to play around in, and it is good to explore it and be familiar with it, but it's not the end.

I haven't watched this video in a while, but I think Leo made a video about this:

Reading "Toward a Psychology of Awakening" at the moment. 

He's got a great perspective on balancing ego development and transcendence.

God is nothing. Therefore, destroy yourself=ego.

If by ego we understand selfishness, than through service to yourself, you choose a negativiley polarized path of spiritual journey according to Ra. I’m not saying it’s not valid but it’s a path through a very far lands of delusion. In the end very hellish. For very brave ones. Or very stupid.

Getting ride of ego is being non existent as human, as long as you are alive you have an ego that you have to deal with. Your whole experience as human is experienced by an ego and you can never get ride of it.

Ego is something that is not permanent so we all agree that it is an illusion, but while you are in the illusion you have to play with illusion tools, ego indeed.

The only way to destroy ego is to die

Ego is not selfishness.

Really I dont understand peoples that gives automatically a negative connotation to ego. Ego is just you, as human, this what you built your entire life, nothing more.

I'm not saying it's not. Love this planet deeply and try to love humans although sometimes it's very, very hard🤦.

@Will1125 if ego is not selfishness, love is hate and hate is love, god is ego and ego is god, solipsism is not what solipsism is by definition, and stuff like that, then my theory that this place or to be more accurate - human experience is built on delusional framework is probably correct.

I agree with you. However, ego/thought can be under control. That's what coming home is about.

Yeap. But again, when you completely surrender to god/emptiness/nothingness, it is under control. Believe me.

Ego is selfishness literally. Ego is your desire to do things and experience things using your physical body. If I turned you into a rock and deleted your memory of ever being a human you wouldn't have an Ego. Now Ego isn't a bad thing, but it is literally your individual self identity.


You are a selfless LACK OF APPEARANCE, that CONSTRUCTS AN APPEARANCE. But that appearance can disappear and reappear and we call that change, we call it time, we call it space, we call it distance, we call distinctness, we call it other. But notice...this appearance, is a SELF. A SELF IS A CONSTRUCTION!!! 

So if you want to know the TRUTH OF THE CONSTRUCTION. Just deconstruct the construction!!!! No point in playing these mind games!!! No point in creating needless complexity!!! The truth of what you are is a BLANK!!!! A selfless awareness....then that means there is NO OTHER, and everything you have ever perceived was JUST AN APPEARANCE, A MIRAGE, AN ILLUSION, IMAGINARY. 

Everything that appears....appears out of a lack of appearance/void/no-thing, non-sense (can't be sensed because there is nothing to sense). That is what you are, and what arises...is made of that. So nonexistence, arises/creates existence. And thus everything is solved.

This is all true.

But then eventually "Design your desired ego and create your desired reality."  gets very very boring.

Especially, when you are successful in creating your desired reality and get everything you wanted.

If it hasn't gotten boring yet or if you are still struggling to create your dream reality, then keep at it.

A lot of people are at the "I already created my dream reality, now what?".

You can eventually get to a place where you master the self concepts, imagination and mental stories, so thoroughly, that you can generate your own oxytocin and dopamine at will. 

Once you can generate your own "Happy Dream", without the external world helping you, the game is almost over.

Eventually, you will see the structure of the ego so thoroughly, that the whole thing starts to collapse before your eyes. 

And sure, you can keep rebuilding it. Like you said, you can't get rid of the ego and "the only way to destroy ego is to die". That's true. It will keep rebuilding itself, whether you like it or not. But it eventually gets to a place, where it keeps collapsing over and over and over again before your eyes. 

And you see the blocks that it is made of.

This makes the whole game of ego very boring to play.

Even when you can generate oxytocin/dopamine whenever you want, it can get boing.

Even the pleasurable states of the ego can get boring, once you see it very clearly.

Ego is a mechanism that wants to survive.

I am not sure if you want to call that selfish or something else.

When you say "Ego is just you, as human, this what you built your entire life, nothing more.":

Ego is not that solid. It's not like a solid object.

But it "appears" like a solid object.

But eventually you can see what the bricks are made of, that are building the house.

No that's the problem with you guys giving only a negative connotation to it.

Ego isn't inherently selfish, it becomes selfish when it is excessive or unbalanced.

Ego is literally how you perceive yourself in this reality.

 

This perception will literally defines all your actions, including what you do, what you say etc and as a logical consequence will shape your entire reality

YOU are Reality

You = Ego

Even if ego(=reality) is an illusion at ultimate level, that is what reality depends on to take a form.
