Ego


Negative (deluded) expressions of Ego is what disintegrates human relatinships in Society.

Imposing ones will for sake of pride and power is an example. Facebooks news feed is flooded with such expressions. Police brutality, Road rage, etc.

Ego is in contradistinction to Super Ego.

Your Ego is valuable for it is (for those returning) what you bring to the world from other lives. However, it is in contradistinction to Consciousness (Super Ego). The Ego is what is required to be used for action and provides wisdom. However, it is, as said bound by past lives, and is therefore not capable of dealing with the present and the future through right conscious action (that when activated, alerts us of future outcome and consequences).

Once activating the Ego, people get all their Karma directed to them (negative Karma that is). This is why the only safe time to activate it is when doing Dharma. However, people believe this is the ‘way f life’, to be activated at all times. They’re encouraged for it, it’s seen as (and is) ‘cool’ and is most certainly calming, for it activates the parasympathetic nervous system. Our closest relation ships (family, friends, authority figures) may all exhibit and positively reward our expressions. Indeed, for many, the only way you can be acceptable to them and talk tothem (I shudder to imagine women or men in a romantic relationship w this dynamic) is if you entirely comprimise yourself and have to deaden your soul to match their energy.

In the Ego, ones ‘cup’ is full, unable to intake new information. Indeed, one’s drunk (deluded) on everything they don’t know.

Further expressions of Ego is seen in manifest displays of violence. When ones cup is full and accompanied with negative emotion, violence becomes alarmingly easy to resort to. There are men who fantasise and dream of the day when they can ruthlessly inflict violence onto others. Hollywood panders to these men with crime shows, movies like John Wick, and many more. Their imagination is under the law of karma as all our thoughts is transmitted, and they’re suffering through simply visualising initiating harm unto others.

The disparagement of ‘Karens’ ‘Kens’, (whose root issue is nutritional deficiencies, but secondly, an over emphasis on Ego at the expense of consciousness), Gang violence, Lust, Gluttony, Avarice, are all such manifestations. The list is endless.

This is the root cause of the Gossip magazine industry. People who are proud (Ego based) of their (perceived comparative) righteousness and seek to ridicule those who’re different from them. Gossip is one of the most prevailing and depraved (yet accepted) expressions of Ego in our world today.

Psychologically, the Socionics Id (Ignoring function and Demonstrative Function) is what’s activated.

The Ego is, unfortunately, through Trauma and dissasociation, activated for it’s the Parasympathetic nervous system of calm and safety. Traumatic events can render one in the Ego for many months and even years.
