Separation from the Ego V (193)

What Makes us to See the Ego as One?

What helps separation is when we don’t want that ego. It is identification that makes us to see ourselves as one with the ego. We fully adopt the identity of the ego. The identity of a person who has been wronged, or the identity of a Don Juan or an identity of a person who is being attacked or being offended or insulted etc. etc.

Separation, really is a matter of awakening and comprehension. This is probably the first step in the awakening in Gnosis. We do it most of the time only partly, but to do it fully consciously is the real key.


Self-Remembering

The real self-remembering comes from that being that consciousness not taking on other identities which are the egos. We have to do that consciously. Without separation or an in depth knowledge of that self-remembering is not really effectively possible either.

How can we separate from something if we don’t know the two parts that we are going to separate from?


Degrees of Separation

There are degrees of separation. Sometimes we can be intellectually separate from the ego but still have it in our human machine. This is when we suffer. This is when we know how to suffer. The right way to suffer is conscious suffering. It is a real myth that we are able to separate all and every ego just like that, maybe in the Second Mountain and in the Third Mountain.


Conclusion

We are to blame as to why we identify with the ego, only though when we know that we are the consciousness. It is difficult to be fully responsible beforehand, all that we can be responsible beforehand is to not allow the ego in us to make us do wrong things, because we have to know wrong from right. The more we know that we are an essence or consciousness the more or the better we will be able to separate from the ego and be more responsible for our psychological functionings.

End (193).
