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

In one of Wayne Dyer's books he writes
"Ego stands for.

Edge God Out."

That kind of sums it up.

The ego thinks it and what it is doing is more important than anything or anyone else,
God is rarely given credit or even thought of.
Humility whats that???
Ego doesn't have a clue, it lives in ignorance.
It doesn't need to be attacked feared or anything like that, just forgiven and surrendered to the love of God.
Its not what you really are.
Its a pretender!!!!
BUT its got most people fooled in to believing and identifying with the "me" story.
Im so important look at me!!!
Im so important in my success or miseries.
Specialness is the last resort of the ego, it cant abide humility.
Jesus so humble.
