When an Ego Starts Something Transform it - (4885)

To be wise is key. 


If an ego starts something we know that later on down the track that ego will go, and we will give up what we started or that ego will somehow divert what we started, turning it into something else.


It is unwise to never start something if we feel that the ego is present. The wise thing to do is to just start and carefully redirect or transmute the directions and impulses of the ego into alignment with the correct way of things.


Alchemy, is a good example. In the beginning the impulse to practice may come from an ego of lust, however if we are attentive and aware, we can transmute that situation by redirecting the initiative of the ego inwards and upwards to our Inner Being. 


We may have lots of energy when an ego is present and no energy when the same ego is absent. So being wise, we can take advantage when that ego is present, by using that energy to do something such as a chore. 


For example, we may have lots of energy to talk about something, that is good, then we can talk and do chores. Instead of stop talking and do nothing or fall asleep.


End (4885).
