Exploring The Ego Personality In Life
by Davina Ho
When I say the word ego people often get quite defensive as the word has the undertone associated with narcissism or lack of humbleness. When it comes to meditation, I like to add the word personality to the ego. We all have and need to have an ego-personality – a sense of self – an identity – a knowing of who we are in the world with all of our likes and dislikes. And there’s nothing wrong with this. Yet at the same time, there is also something much deeper than our ego personalities that offers us freedom from the ever-changing landscape of life… it’s Awareness… we are unique and separate individuals with all of our likes and dislikes and yet we all have this ability to reach a state of pure connection with everything else in this universe.
