Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 >Thought Prison > >Your ego is a set of thoughts that define your universe. It's like a >familiar room built of thoughts; you see the universe through its windows. >You are secure in it, but to the extent that you are afraid to venture >outside, it has become a prison. Your ego has you conned. You believe you >need its specific thoughts to survive. The ego controls you through your >fear of loss of identity. To give up these thoughts, it seems, would >annihilate you, and so you cling to them. >There is an alternative. You needn't destroy the ego to escape its tyranny. >You can keep this familiar room to use as you wish, and you can be free to >come and go. First you need to know that you are infinitely more than the >ego room by which you define yourself. Once you know this, you have the >power to change the ego from prison to home base.
