Episode 7: Ego: We All Identify With It

Charliie's TRUTH Podcast

In this episode I open the floor to the discussion of ego. In addition, I discuss being consciousness, creating inner space, and self-awareness. Too often we are told kill the ego, or we discuss ego as if it is a negative thing. But reality is, we all experiences with ego, and it’s not a bad or good thing, it just is. Ego is more than the self-sabotage thoughts we have, or responding from a place of anger or entitlement. It is more than an overinflated sense of self. Ego is identity or sense of self that you carry. Despite many recommending that we “Kill the Ego,” my belief is that we become aware of it and practice managing it. My belief is that at our core, we are consciousness. And when we become conscious of not only things, but become conscious of our consciousness, we can stop holding our identity of self (ego) at such a high place. OUR TRUE SELF doesn’t need praise or pity, it is already whole and has everything it needs. Deepak Chopra said -- “ “If you want to reach a state f bliss, then go BEYOND your ego and the internal dialogue. Make a decision to relinquish the need to control, the need to be approved, and the need to judge. Those are the three things ego is doing all the time. It’s very important to be aware of them every time they come up.” My opinion, self-awareness is the key. The key to our freedom.
