Re: The ego what is it? How to transcend?
i cant believe it took me this long to make my way to this thread, a lot of great wisdom here. basically, my spirituality is an ultimate goal of being myself, in the deepest sense of the idea. by 'myself' i mean my inner spirit, my being, the space that i am when i completly let go and let flow what the universe would have flow. to me, the ego is the part of me that is fighting this. i wish i could just live by it, to be fearless and completely here and now, but it's easier said than done in my experience. i would imagine the result of being 'real' is enlightenment if what we really are is spiritual beings. aha! i've only been in the presence of one person in this state and she was the most graceful person i've ever seen, she wouldn't claim it but she is indirectly a great spiritual teacher, just by being herself. a bodhisattva.
