Introduction
This post is a remedy to the situation when you know that
you really have to work on an ego but it is strong and you don’t want to work
on it. In some way we still want what it gives or promises us.
What it Gives or What it Promises?
Before I go on, there is a very interesting point here to
look at and it is are we wanting what the ego actually gives us or what the ego
promises us.
When we get what the ego wants is that really what we
wanted. In a majority of the cases we don’t really want what the ego gives us,
because the reality of getting what the ego gives is not so happy, pleasing and
agreeable as it sounded.
Usually we want what the ego promises us and that can be
something that we can get truly get through the Being instead of through the ego.
The reason why this is because what we may want is something that is not bad.
For example
For example we may want some sort of freedom and so lust
tries to get it and then that becomes inconvenient for us and in the end it is
not freedom that we get but complications and difficulties etc. However, in the
beginning we wanted freedom, if we try to get it through the Being we will truly
get it.
Remedy
Here is the remedy. The remedy is to search for the truth
behind it. To search for the truth of what the ego wants, find the true nature
of its end result and its desires.
The truth is neutral and sets us free. If we actually find
the truth behind we will be happy to let the ego go anyway. Finding the truth
does not cause any pain and does not bother or annoy us.
Conclusion
The key is look for the truth behind the ego, find out why
it wants what it does and what is the true nature of what it wants. The truth
is something neutral and does not harm the essence or us, it actually frees us
and it actually it dissolves the ego.
End (240).
