Are we ready to finally break the shackles of our conditioned mind and become transparent to the light of consciousness? Can we enter a state where we are highly awake and yet not thinking? Can we defy the compulsive and destructive thinking that’s being played in our head like old gramophone records? 

Such a profound transformation is possible solely when we look and perceive reality outside ordinary sense perception. It’s time that you realize you're prey to none other than your own ego and mind. 

You’re Not Using Your Mind; The Mind Is Using You. 

So you’re telling me, there’s something wrong with our minds? That it’s kind of an enemy to me? Well, It’s an era of logic and rational thinking. Mind is great at untangling the mysteries out there and keeping everything in order. 

Certainly, the mind is a superb tool when used wisely. A survival machine that gathers, stores, and utilizes information.  However, when used wrongly, it becomes destructive and dangerous. 

Obsessive thinking has become a disease, and it seems like everyone’s suffering from a never-ending downpour of obsessive thoughts.  As we get overwhelmed by our ideas and feelings, we progressively lose our sense of self to the demons of our minds.   That’s precisely why most people struggle to discover their inner realms and powers.

How Ego Destroys Your Own Self-worth? 

Ego is our self-image of who we are. It’s is our perception of what is going on around us. Our upbringing, lifestyle, culture, and family history shape our egos.  We perceive our thoughts, feelings, and ideas to be the ultimate truth. 

When we fall victim to our egos, our identity becomes dependent on external events. As an outcome, our sense of self is constantly wavering. The first step that the ego takes is separating itself from everything else and creating a false sense of “I” vs. “Others.” 

Your ego then constantly struggles for supremacy and self-realization to maintain its survival.  When "others" are viewed as enemies, egoistic behavior leads to finding fault in others and a sense of self-righteous superiority.  In short, our sense of being right depends on others being wrong.

Ego loves to complain! Dissect your ego, and you’ll find resistance living at its core. This resistance could be towards a person, a situation, an event, or a past experience. Complaining and resentment are thus ego’s two favorite companions. 

Acknowledge that compulsive thinking is never a sign of intelligence. If anything, it’s your unconscious self trying to find meaning in all the wrong places. Identification with ego and mind hinders our journey towards self-advocacy and to creating the secure & healthy relationships that you deserve.

Awakening and Returning Moment 

Alright, now I understand what you were trying to assert at the beginning. Indeed we should not let our mind and ego wander & dictate our self. But how can I stop this incessant stream of negative thoughts and emotions? Is there a way out?

You’re already on your way to awakening the moment you identify your potential dis-ease. Identification is your first step towards awakening.  The beginning of liberation is to know that you’re not your mind. Rather than judging your thoughts, be the observer. Embrace your present moment. Your level of consciousness grows when you cultivate your inner state: your inner guidance system. 

Simply put, Feeling one's inner body is the key to resolving all of life's tumultuous issues. As a remedy for mental and egoic snares, meditation puts us in touch with our spiritual selves and the natural world.
