Detecting The Ego

You can detect how active the ego is by checking the depth and ease of your breathing and any tension in your body. If it is active, the breath becomes shallow and the body will become tense. When inactive (dormant), the breath is natural and free flowing. To rise above an active ego, simply play close attention to your breath and body. The ego will be disempowered and return to it's dormant state. 

The Kind Ego

The ego can cleverly disguise itself as kindness, trying to look “good” in front of others, to enhance its own image. Watch and watch carefully the clever ego that tries to enhance its image to be liked, to be respected. The moment you witness it, you are freed from it. 

Ego Problems

None of ego’s problems can be solved at the level of the mind. But all ego’s problems can be solved at the level of presence. 

They can’t see you

Ego is the Human blindness of not seeing the other as part of you.
