- In this video, we explore the concept of the ego and why it can be our greatest enemy in life. We delve into the question of why the ego is the enemy and how it can hold us back from achieving our true potential. We discuss the importance of letting go of ego and pride, and how this can lead to greater happiness and success in life.
If you're ready to take on the ultimate battle in life and let go of your ego, then this video is for you. Join us on this journey of self-discovery and learn how to let go of ego for a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
I’ve allowed my ego to get in the way of my relationships which ultimately destroyed them. I was loving and becoming attached to my partners not with my heart, but with my ego. I’m wide awake today. I know for a fact that as long as I can get rid of my ego, I can truly love someone for who they are and not for what I can gain from them. Man this has been a tough pill to swallow
Don't be so hard on yourself. It's all good. Never forget to be kind to yourself. Everyone is just you pushed out so they're your messengers on your state of being at the moment. Cherish this knowledge and work on yourself...
May I ask respectfully how you came to the realización of this? Did someone try to tell you, or did you have an eureka moment in your life? I have family members that have this blind spot, and sometimes I feel I should tell tell, and sometimes I feel exhausted, and I don't want to deal with them. I just avoid interactions with them, but at the same time, I wonder if they know they have a lot of pride and ego.
Yes it is. But it won't be. You will get there.
Forget that dream, nobody loses their ego
Ever noticed that a lack of sleep supercharged the ego chatter... but early nights and quality sleep silences the ego? Finally realising this after staying up till 3am most of my life. When we sleep we connect back to source, when we don't sleep ego takes over the body avd mind
Former PM Margaret Thatcher used to brag how she got as little sleep as possible. Hmm.
Removing your ego is a journey:
1. Be self-aware.
2. Practice humility.
3. Cultivate empathy.
4. Learn from criticism.
5. Try mindfulness.
6. Develop gratitude.
7. Serve others.
8. Reflect on impermanence.
It’s about managing, not eliminating, your ego with patience and self-compassion.
9. Ah, it's still there.
Ego is not an enemy. It is part of ourselves, and we should not fight with ourselves. Its better to say, that we need to master control of ego, but keep it in respect and love - its still our piece:) bless You all!
its not untill you understand it is.
@@businessmogul4026 U should understand why ego can lead You for trouble. But still - its not an enemy. U dont have to fight with it. Just understand and accept its weakness. Not a single part of yourself can be your enemy. Its not a fight. It is growth :) of course - You can choose fighting. But for what? I think its better become a creator of your live, not a fighter, who has to fight for it. God bless You!
"How can you defeat me? You can only defeat someone who wants to win.” ― Lao Tzu.
Ego is the enemy. To get to our higher self we must murder our ego. Most people do not realise their lives are led by their ego.
@@Strider1111ego is not a part of us, it is an image and behaviour that was learnt.
It's hard discerning ego at times cause once you live a certain way for sometime you begin to consider it to be the only way to be. I think the killer line in this video was the truth that it keeps you from your highest form of self expression
I not only listen to the end I revisit every morning
How does it effect you?
SAME. We all just need gentle reminders.
Ego is not the Enemy. It can appear to be, I know. But see it like this: Ego is your greatest teacher and the transformation takes on a whole new way of looking at our selves. Ego is just a data-code, if you like, in a dream world. No enemies needed. Peace
And is also the greatest source of greed, competetiveness and selfishness. So getting rid of it is right.
I struggle with my ego. I just really allowed myself to accept that, and today is the first day i am seeking guidance on how to progress to the next step of my growth. I like to maintain control in all things, and will completely isolate myself from situations/people/groups i can't control. Right now my biggest focus is being a team player at work instead of the lone wolf. It feels terrifying to trust and open up energetically - i just have never done it.
Never struggle with your ego, learn how to use it wisely. The ego is the dark side of the light. We were born to see light but over time we became like bats, we "see" in the dark, we feel comfortable in the dark and the ego is the dark. On the other hand, the light, the light has become darkness for us. If you listen to the ego, open your ears to the poison it speaks, do its advice, submit yourself to its threats, you will forever remain its slave, a bat. Therefore, when used correctly, the ego can be used by you as a "mine detector", as a device that indicates where your next challenge is, the door to your next step. Where the ego runs amok, there lies your next test.
Practice and pray let go it's ok 👍
My experiences taught me that the ego is a tool I use and it can either be my enemy or my best ally, depending on what patterns I feed it with.
Yeah I agree. I see my (remaining) ego as my teacher. To see it as your enemy it's not that wise since that can, and do, create fear. Peace
Best comment by an ego ever
I love how you say become what you wish to see in the world. Belief in worthiness of self is power and how we allow to let the insult fuels us is entirely up to us. I always watch your videos til the end and have learned so much on my thought process. Thank you! ❤
I have been told for years that my gift of change and the way I could flow from one situation to another was a bad thing and that without being sent from constant I was not being authentic and was not capable of getting to know myself not taking a deeper look if possible tools to accomplish such a thing I've now learned that they were asking you to limit myself they were asking me to fit into the fold rather than accepting my authentic self. The only time I suffer self-doubt and emotional peaks and valleys is when I'm trying to be stationary. So instead of changing myself I only need to accept myself I've learned a lot here so far thank you
The main issue at hand, as I think I understand it, would seem to be achieving general acceptance of all that you have clearly pointed out here. I believe that the points that you have made here are spot on, the real truth of ego & the problematic situations it presents in every day life. Pride & peoples need to be right all the time, while being virtually unable to accept being corrected, often coupled with perpetually needing to have the last word.
Wisdom comes when we realize the huge amount that we do not know.
BTW, I really enjoy the content of your channel, I've only discovered it within the last week or so, & I am finding that I can't get enough, You seem to have a talent for choosing topics of real interest, keep it up. Regards from Australia, 🙂
Thank you for these Nuggets of Wisdom. They are truly transforming. God Bless you.
I wanna say that I have watched 8 videos already and I have enjoyed everyone of them and it's bringing me bk slowly and I'm most grateful for it to have reminded me of my path and help me realize that being alone and in loads of silence is truly ok to continue on with faith and great vision and never quit and my purpose will be filled within its own time. This video has helped me most by knowing I have gain control of my reactions and remain in silence to keep the peace and I pray I keep this going and continue to find peace. Namaste❤
I will pray for you too
The vibrations of wisdom and sound in itself is transforming. Thank you for engaging me in awareness of being and its importance 💕
Yes, everyone healing journey is unique. I believe we are heading to the same destination which is “The Self.” However, we have to take our individual journey there. For me I was my worst energy. I had to heal the enemy within and set it free with compassion in order release resistance. so I truly believe this. Thank you!
Thank you for a clear and easy-to-understand video...I listened to so many videos on a similar topic but they, unlike yours, get lost in the jargon and no explainations. Yours is great! THANK YOU!!
One of the most simplistic, and impactful presentations I have come across. Similar to a detective attempting to solve a case, the small, subtle evidences that lead to enlightenment can be found once you truly begin to search... personally I found that those evidences eventually lead you here... "to the Ego". Letting go of, and outgrowing the ego appears to be the door you must enter in order to find the peaceful Zen like, enlightened state of mind that many search for. This presentation truly sums that up. 👏🏽
Thank you so much, I love your videos and every night I hear them ❤
Thank You this is so good. I didn't think I had an ego or problem until you started tell me about it Thanks so much

Nice, easy to understand explanation of ego, thank you
Such amazing video and calm voice!
I've used my ego as a shield from my insecurities. Which comes from childhood trauma however I seen people use ego as a way to hold success and control... I've been raised from people who have had nothing but ego . Dang my abusers projected their Demons onto me how to surrender and let go ... I'm interested in letting go and being present rather than lost in my ego .. 😢
I wish you let go of your traumas by practising mindfulness, gratitude. Serve others often. Make yourself feel good by doing whatever you like working or creating out of you. This way you will let go of your traumas. You shouldn't let go of your ego as it is an alarm, notifying whenever there is a threat, but use it with purpose and not to prove that you are good. I hope you be blessed with that Almighty to give you strength to change and be a better version of yourself.
Thank you for creating such informative wisdom,continue to create more all your contents are like food to my souls greatly appreciated your work 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🤭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕

Thank you ❤”
thank you ive been struggling ith my ego lately
Excellent video.
Good luck everyone. I am struggling too with my ego. I used to be the complete opposite. But over the last two years I was working in a competitive environment, plus fighting with my family over money, and I completely changed. I hate it. I don't feel like myself and my ego is destroying and getting in the way of everything.
very helpful sir! hope you all the best!
Thank you🙏
loved this
thank you .
Perceiving the ego from a stance of disassociation is still ego.
Never be at enmity with any part of you. Nothing is released without acceptance first, but in that acceptance comes understanding and will understand that the ego was only ever trying to protect you.
Constantly observing the ego will eventually kill it. The ego convinces you that you are a person separate from the world which introduces fear in your life. We make that mistake in each and every dream. Each time it takes awakening to (be able to) realize we never were a separate person. We always are consciousness in which dreams appear, by which dreams are perceived and of which dreams consist. Even in the dream called life.
@@geertmeertens-sk7lv like I said. Your ego is a part of you. You can disassociate if you like, you wage war if you like........but ultimately at the end of the day that is still ego.
@@rpura4883 Can you tell me about any dream you ever had in which your ego was real and survived the dream ("like I said. Your ego is a part of you")? Consciousness is all there is, so it has got to be what you are. Everything 'else' appears in it like in any dream.
@@GeertMeertens no. I accept myself, my dreams are just that. Why would I spend my rest time, dreaming of death
@@rpura4883 Then we agree. That is, if you realize that life is but a dream.
Awesome video!!!!
So good.
Amazing ❤️🙏👍
You speak truth to spiritual awakening. Thank you

Thankyou
Great video ❤
you make my life better
No one is without an ego. It is created from the summation of all our experiences since birth. It's who we believe ourselves to be compared to the world around us. Ego is only bad when we become unaware of it. Then there is the propensity to create irrational fears and a feeling of separateness. I believe the source of all the worlds problems, from petty arguments to world wars can be traced back the ego from either complete unawareness of it or the inability to control it. When you are unaware of your ego you are susceptible to con men and demagogues. You are more easily manipulated by advertising and fads and politics and religion.
Thanks

I'm trying to observe thoughts but sometimes a thought comes in and i cannot deny it and it's a "negative" thought...
I'm trying to observe thought and the reaction
eactor to thought
Sometimes the state comes in that i don't have to pay attention to thoughts, but other times it's like i'm glued to being the reaction and accepting them even tho i desperatly just want to observe them without judgement...
It's completely normal to experience challenges when trying to observe thoughts without judgment. Our minds can be quite active, and negative thoughts can arise from time to time. Remember that the practice of observing thoughts is just that-a practice. It takes time and patience to develop the skill of non-judgmental observation.
When you find yourself getting caught up in negative thoughts or being reactive, try these techniques:
1. Acknowledge the thought: Recognize that it's just a passing thought and not a reflection of who you are.
2. Reframe the thought: Challenge negative thoughts by reframing them in a more positive or neutral light.
3. Focus on the present moment: Shift your attention to your immediate surroundings or engage in an activity that brings you joy or calmness.
4. Practice self-compassion: Be kind to yourself and understand that everyone experiences negative thoughts at times. Treat yourself with understanding and patience.
Remember, it's okay to have thoughts and reactions. The key is to observe them without judgment and let them pass. With continued practice, you'll become more skilled at observing thoughts without getting caught up in them. Keep up the effort, and over time, you'll find greater peace and clarity.
