The Death of Ego

It is difficult to conceive of a world beyond the one we ordinarily occupy. Yet, when we consider that our power of reason is bound by a lifetime of limited sensory input it takes only a little imagination to realise that our world is but one expression of the Universal Mind. Our senses perceive energy from a blinkered viewpoint. This limited view ensures we see things as objects or events in a space-time continuum. Our whole Ego based belief system of separation is based on little more than an illusion!

Sorcerers refer to an assemblage point that for want of a better description is responsible for the world we experience. Our ability to reason is just a consequence of the habitual position of the assemblage point. The more fixed the assemblage point the more confident we become in the workings of the physical world and the better able we are to predict our everyday experience. The assemblage point is likened to our level of awareness and is only where it is at through habituation. The fixed nature of our awareness nurtures our way of perceiving things and so the cycle continues. If we were to alter our point of awareness then we would perceive entirely different worlds as we do for example when we are dreaming. In contrast, an expanded awareness gives us far greater control of the world we are perceiving. Through our acquired knowledge of universal laws we are able to choose the world we wish to experience!


Through generations of habituation we have come to know the world as a world of objects. In actual fact all objects are first energy and then they are objects. It is only our level of expectation and limited perception that make them appear as physical objects. Indeed, we ourselves are energy configurations that have come to rely on our senses for survival but in doing so have trapped ourselves in a physical domain that we don't seem able to see beyond. We seem to have cornered ourselves in a world of our own making but instead of breaking free we build yet more walls to enhance our feelings of comfort and security. Have you noticed how society invents more and more rules to control every aspect of our lives and how gradually we are losing our sense of responsibility. You see this in all aspects of our lives. We come to rely on governments to look after us. We feel happy and safe in a 9-5 job. We are quite content when rules are made to protect us even when they take away our freedom piece by piece. This in fact is just a global expression of what the Ego is. Our separation from the rest of the world puts us in judgement of it and the more rules and false knowledge we have about ourselves the more we pass responsibility on. It is the "I am right" and "you are wrong" syndrome that preserves the idea of separation.

Our Ego puts a great deal of energy into maintaining our self importance and above all else is responsible for our current predicament. Its controlling nature and sense of uniqueness are potent corrupting forces that keep us chained to our prison cells. We can only really break free when we let go of preconceived ideas we have about ourselves and the world we live in. This of course means letting go of who we think we are and coming to know who we actually are. Only when we do this will we see the illusion for what it is, just a vehicle to remember who we are. The death of the Ego is nigh!

Forgiveness is the Greatest Expression of Love

Forgiveness is the greatest expression of Love ( A course in Miracles)

When we forgive we let go in ourselves those faults we see in others. The act of forgiving brings us to the present and makes us whole again. It releases us from the past where the ego resides with all of its baggage of sin and guilt. Why? Because when we judge and think thoughts of revenge, bitterness, anger and hatred we are dwelling in the past. We can only really escape this illusion when we let go and forgive. To let go removes a huge weight from our shoulders. We no longer suffer the pain and illness that can easily result from the negative emotions of residing in the past. We become whole and at one with the eternal now.

In the stillness of now we experience love, peace and beauty. These are the things we truly are and to them time is an alien concept. When we live in the moment we drop the baggage of the past and live life anew. The concepts of age and time are shattered! We are literally born again!

The inability to 'let go' through forgiveness of others or even ourselves is without doubt the greatest cause of suffering in our lives. It is so important to understand this! Our lives will completely turn around when we master 'letting go' through forgiveness. Here is a wonderful book called The Sedona Method. It's a practical book dealing with the release of negative emotions.

The present of forgiveness is giving up the past.
