Traditionally Western psychology has focused on the ego but the truth is, our egos obscure the full wonder and intelligence of our eternal Natures. Perhaps we need to learn how to witness the way our egos function and allow them to dissolve. Then we can find peace, freedom and happiness through expressing our true Essences.

You know,

Making this video in India,

And right now there's a choice between the noise of the fan that you might be hearing or colossal honking from the street below.

For whatever reason,

Indian people like to honk their horns.

But I remember in Peru,

The same thing happened in Lima,

The city,

The great honking,

Anyway,

Sort of the asserting one that one exists.

I honk,

Therefore I exist.

Anyway,

I wanted to make a video just highlighting the ego,

Because for Westerners,

Our psychology is often actually a study of the ego.

We don't realize that it's possible to live beyond the ego and to live in a way where over time our ego shrinks and our soul comes into our bodies and our perspective.

You know,

Living this way,

Allowing the soul energy in,

You become very peaceful and happy.

And daily you get proof that there is way more to this human existence than we might think,

That we're here,

We've been put here by a much higher intelligence,

We've been dreamed into being by a much higher intelligence than just our human intelligence.

But since we're human,

We can get stuck in just the human part of our intelligence and we don't know how to grow beyond this.

And this is really what my work is all about is to help people become who they were born to be.

So I just wanna make a couple of really clear statements.

It is your ego that makes you feel heavy.

And it is your ego that fills your mind with thoughts and judgments about others.

Actually underneath those judgments are your judgments about your true essence,

Your true self.

But our egos don't want us to see that.

So it seems that we're judging others.

We get hypnotized by what's going on outside us.

So we think somebody's corrupt or somebody's selfish,

But if somebody locked us in a prison cell for 10 years,

Over time,

We would realize that we were those things,

Our ego was those things.

And if we were spiritually inclined,

We might give that ego over to the creator.

And basically in the physical safety of the prison cell,

We might allow our true energy to come in,

In the sense physical safety in that we don't have to work for our food.

We don't have to organize our life.

It's all done for us.

So we could have the space just to witness our own ego and give it over and allow a transformation.

And this is why it's been said by others that being stuck in a prison cell sometimes is the best thing that can happen to you because there's nowhere else to go but inside and you can find your freedom.

But sometimes in life,

Our difficulties get so big that we turn inside or our dissatisfaction gets so big,

Even if there's no external difficulty that we turn inside.

And at first it can feel like a hedge of thorns turning inside because we might be faced with how defended we are,

How judgmental.

But as we,

Again,

Pray,

Think about who we really are,

Who we're born to be,

Those prickles will melt.

And the easy way is to hang around spiritual masters like I did because they kind of love you into letting your prickles go.

You're just faced with how loving they are and so you start seeing the universe as more loving than you thought.

And so your own prickles,

Your own thorns,

Your own judgments start dissolving because you just realize they're diluted.

And then your ego screams and tries to get you back thinking in its old way.

But if you just keep focused on who you're born to be,

You can begin to lodge with a much more expansive point of view,

A much more loving point of view.

Any of us can do it.

And especially right now where there's so much focus from the divine on the earth,

We've got so many helpful angelic energies.

You know,

A big secret,

Okay,

There's a big secret to reducing your ego.

Just witness it,

See it in stark relief.

Don't get in there and try to fight it or tell yourself you're a bad girl or boy,

Just witness it.

So,

You know,

Witness if you get really pushy.

I mean,

Recently I was in an airport and I was in lineup and somebody was about to order food.

He was taking a long time.

He was humming and hawing and I just wanted coffee.

So I said,

Can I just have coffee?

You know,

And the guy was totally insulted and I realized that I,

You know,

I could have waited.

There was no rush.

So,

You know,

Again,

I saw my impatience and this is how my ego is cleared.

I would see stuff,

Just see it.

Just see if you're selfish,

If a bit of selfishness comes up,

See it.

You know,

And if you're staring toward the divine,

If you're staring towards living the life of who you were born to be,

You'll become more purified.

It's that simple.

And I'll tell you at this time,

We've got so much energetic support for anybody who gets at all interested in discovering the love in your heart because there is immortal,

Eternal,

Omniscient love within your heart that's just hoping that maybe this life you'll turn and say yes to it.

Okay,

Bless your hearts.

This really rings true for me and actually allows self compassion and tolerance back into my soul. I’m NOT. a monster! Just a human being trying to navigate through my own ego.
