The subject of EGO is a very tricky and contradictory subject.

We are supposed to believe in ourselves...recognize that we are genetic royalty...and that divinity is within all of humanity. Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. We are told to have self-esteem. But then we are told to be EGO-less. We are told to be non-competitive. Some say we were created by snakes. Some say we are ruled by snakes.

My solution is to combine opposites...to be proud and humble...simultaneously. We should seek the elevation of all of humanity...rather than the exaltation of our individual selves by selling out our brothers and sisters. Another way to say this is 'Stand Tall...and Lift'.

We don't need to grovel before God...but we do need to Reverence Life.

Namaste.
