more on ego...

[Guest guest]

hi tribe. when we speak of ego we each of course have our own personal

definitions of the

word. when i had that salvia vision of the expanding tree with the branches

sprouting from

branches going on forever... well i still don't know what it means. but on

reflecting about

ego it occured to me that the formation of ego may have been a long and gradual

process.

if the trunk of the tree in the vision can be viewed as Source then each

branching outward

takes us further from that sense of unity. and so gradually we have individuated

our selves

away from this spirit of communion with all. that is how i see ego: that sense

of

differentiation from everything else in the universe. this existential

loneliness may be the

result of generations of conditioning. i've read that this sense of self may be

a fairly new

development in humans on this planet. we are further conditioned that if we are

this way

now then it must always have been so. but perhaps not. i address this topic in

this group

because it is my hope that the kundalini process may reverse this sense of

alienation and

bring in a new consciousness of unity.

blessings and love to all,
