Retreat Post 9 – Logic of the Ego - (601)

Disclaimer – Not Mine Only Notes

I have to stress that these words are my notes only. The thoughts and understanding behind them do not come from me but from the terrific missionaries that lead the various activities during the retreat.


Logic of the Ego

The ego presents to us a logic. This logic contains the reasons and justifications of the ego. It is essentially what convinces the free essence to identify with the ego and carry out in the physical what it desires.

Origin

This logic of the ego comes from the misperception of the truth of the area of life to which this ego belongs to or is concerned with. For example, the origin of the logic of lust comes from a general and several other misperceptions of sexuality. So the same with all the other egos that the human being has.


End (601).
