Lightbulb Re: The ego what is it? How to transcend?

This continues to be one of my favorite threads. Quite revealing and refreshing.

I like this analogy


from 14Charkras
"Overcoming the ego just means going with the flow, the River of Life that is always More."

Reading other members (very sincere) post comments, is like drifting down a flowing river, allowing oneself to take in the continuing changing view of both sides of the shore. From this process, one's innerself (soul) will hopefully emerge.

I believe one can occasionally, drift towards a safe shore. But~ just for a brief respite. For being stagnant upon it too long will, give the ego time to wake-up

This process of flowing, enabling the innerself (soul) to fully awake, should eventually lead to leaving one's ego sleeping upon the shore; As you quietly cast off again, towards the ocean of all there is.
