Become comfortable with not defining yourself.
Continuous identification with the movement of thoughts gives rise to a separate entity, that which we call the ego
What we react to in others we strengthen in ourselves
Ego = No space between you and the thought
Once you label another human you desensitize yourself to the humanity, the essential aliveness of who they are
All ego is arising from unconsciousness
You are not what awareness is perceiving, you are the awareness itself
For most humans their teacher is suffering.
When you believe your opinion you then must defend it to maintain your existence
Enjoying this moment as it is is all you can truly do
You can only really enjoy the forms if you are detached from them, otherwise their constant change causes you to suffer
Our power arises from being more yourself not taking on any role
Change only begins with you
To get out of the mind get into your body
Compulsive thinking has no purpose, it does not produce change
You can only be an agent of conscious change if you have changed, otherwise you only ad to the chaos
Worry pretends to be necessary but serves no useful purpose
The greatest gift we can give others is presence
If you strengthen one polarity you automatically strengthen the other
For most people their daily reality is a reflection of their predominant state of consciousness
Things are more likely to work out harmoniously when you are at peace
Awareness and ego are incompatible
The universal impulse is the evolution of consciousness
Now is the hidden exit out of the ego
No thought you have about something is a realization
A belief is a thought, a realization is a feeling
You are the consciousness in which the form is arising
Eternity is not endless time, it is the dimension of timelessness
The essence of being animates the form, it was never the form.
You can see this in a dead body. Its obvious the essential beingness we associated with the person is no longer there, so who they are was never the body, it was whatever was animating it
Its not about getting rid of the ego it is about recognizing what it is, unconsciousness.
