Have you actually ever wondered why that did not happen, there must be a great and miraculous significance in the fact that you are living with a sense of I, being it big or small. Big or small 'I' ego, what a concept! How and why did you latch on to that? A baby normally does not get born with or pick up on that concept at all, surely not within the first two minutes of its life. Something special must have happened to you... when the distorted ego concept was externally and artificially implanted in you. Did you ever consider that? Why do you bring in "two minutes after birth"? That is not just a sentence that you picked 'out of thin air' as you will likely say... What happened to you, Tony? Tony, what happened? Remember that I keep asking you about who duped you. That "two minute" sentence is actually closer to a dramatic calamity that was done to you, than you somehow are forced not to realize... In those two minutes lies also your selvation (sic)... Love, Wim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2001 Report Share Posted June 2, 2001 earlier today i responded to vicki....but maybe it was to you wim and tony.... recently i came to realize that the development of the ego is a healthy stage in the arising consciousness of the increasingly subtle mind....before the ego can be allowed to die it has to become healthy enough and strong enough....compassionate enough to martyr itself to a heart centered consciousness.....higher consciousness arises as a continuous process of surrendering to ever more compassionate love....i am always brought back to the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus with his hands pulling open his chest and unveiling his tender and suffering heart....as things are here in the west we cherish the ego above all else....we pamper it with endless materialism (my car, my book, my cds, my wife, my dog, my kids....), we treat it (modern pyschology is obsessed with the ego) and we try to save it (institutional religious salvation in any of it manisfestations)....yet this cultural/specie worship of the ego is probably a good indication that we nearing the edge of a quantum shift into a higher state of consciousness....love is always arising at whatever cost to the individual ego....the ego arises as one to break into two to arise into a higher one...something plus nothing results in expansion....something higher in an integral embrace of all that has come before .^^~~~~~ further up and further in, white wolfe> Dear Tony,> > You wrote:> > The small ego 'I' is no use at all and never was, for it doesn't> > exist.

Paths, places, sights, perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
