Interaction Between Awareness and Ego/Mind

Joe Martino June 11, 2010 5

self-awareness1Having awareness to see beyond programs that playout in our daily lives is what we are all moving towards and uncovering day-by-day. The energies on the planet are changing drastically and our souls are pushing us to become aware and go beyond what it is that we each need to drop.

With the awareness we experience somewhat of a struggle, we can call it a battle if you will.  What begins to happen is the soul is bringing in the higher awareness to make clear what is playing out in any given situation but the ego and mind are fighting to stay within the confines in which they are comfortable. The reason why this happens is quite simple, the mind and ego are identified with it’s current level of awareness and habits and so it wishes to stay there. To make things a little more interesting the mind actually acts as a push for the soul to grow by constantly nagging and challenging the soul and passing that off as YOU. (false sense of self)

Next judgment and observation come in when we begin to look at the world around us and see through what is playing out on the conscious level and begin to feel a pull from both our soul and ego/mind. The ego/mind is what is so tricky because it will convince you that whatever you are observing is wrong no matter what. If the awareness causes you to move forward the mind will try to convince you that you are wrong and will attempt to see and have the awareness but hold onto the 3D programs because the mind and ego are afraid to move forward from the old programs the soul is trying to bring you beyond. At that point the mind will come up with whatever excuse it wishes to keep you locked in the program because it fears the awareness that is coming forward.

The key thing to observe here is, when we begin to become aware of what is playing out in ourselves and others, it’s important to observe what comes up in ourselves when we feel awareness rocking our foundations. Do we feel judged? Do we defend ourselves? Do we try to bury what is coming up? Do we try to pass it off as nothing? Does it make us sad or angry? In any case, it is NEVER external factors that are making us feel this way, it is US and only US. If we feel judged it is because we are judging ourselves or are defending what we are currently identified with. If we begin to feel afraid it is because we are losing a sense of self that is not US but is fighting to stay put. See what comes up, feel it IF YOU NEED TO and move forward without fear of what the future will hold. It is important not to get trapped in the idea that we constantly need to feel out our emotions to the fullest and experience them over and over. That is simply the mind and ego again keeping us held back from moving forward.

    Excellent Article. To add a little more from my experiences..

    What started out as a simple mechanism to protect the denser 3D body has evolved into much more complex creature indeed, and no doubt manipulated and mutated by the ruling class throughout the ages. Having worked with ayahuasca and journeying into the ‘spirit realm’ I can testify that you almost immediately make the distinction between the ego and the higher self, as the ego is incapable of controlling the transcendent journey of the plants. Once you return to the body/ego/mind you remember your higher self and can now be more ‘aware’ of the distinction between source thought and ego broadcasting, so we all have the capability to understand and deal with this. The higher self is always streaming its infinite abundance of love, intuition, and information. To simply connect with spirit all one must do is be in the unfolding NOW of the moment. Of course as the good article above points out that the ego knows this and will hold you in 3D to prevent the connection, and in my experience it usually takes you back to the past or invites a future full of doubt and frustration, etc. But the ego at best is a limited back seat driver. The ego’s life span is that of the physical body’s, not being an eternal component of our higher self, so it’s fighting for its money worth here in 3D; rather than playing its intended part as an assistant in experience. So I think we can understand and forgive its motives.

    I have found that the goal is not to attack or nor eradicate the ego, which is pointless, as it is a part of your physical/emotional body computer and if anything needs to be appreciated for the work it was intended to do. However, once the mutated ego is isolated for what it has become you can begin to compassionately govern it and thus silence it. Don’t be too hard on yourself as you play this game of chess with the ego, it’s been running you a long time and it takes patience. But you will see great change and momentum build (especially as the shift ramps up) as you make the distinction and keep your focus in the NOW. Unless you can hop on a plane and get down to Peru or Brazil for an ayahuasca ceremony (which is the bullet train to super consciousness) I would suggest working with the author of this article as they have a very good grasp about this and offer this wonderful assistance.

    Ego control is the greatest challenge of the awaking process as it is the most dominant and heaviest curtain to lift. We all can make this transition but those who can connect with source sooner will have the smoothest journey and will certainly be able to make full use of intuition and information as it pours forward. As the external material world crumbles around us so does the ego within which is fitting as it was the collective ego that helped create and sustain the limited 3D reality to begin with. Just leave your ego on the beach and swim out to sea and meet your true self :-)

    SHUT YOUR FACES HYPOCRITE SCRUB S. NONE OF YOU HAVE CONQURED YOUR EGO HENCE WHY YOU WERE BORN IN THIS HELLHOLE. WAIT FORGOT YOU ACTUALLY DO CONQUER YOUR EGO WHEN ITS A MATTER OF ACQUIRING SOME COCK OR VAGINA (YOU DO PUT ON A MASK TO HAVE YOUR GENITALS STIMULATED) BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST THAT SHALLOW AND PSYCHOTIC.

    ENJOY YOUR OIL SPILL ANIMALS AND MAKE SURE TO MANUFACTURE MORE AND MORE AND MORE AND MORE MINIS SO THEY CAN JOIN YOU FOR A ROUND OF MILK YOUR OWN ADVENTURE. (THE OIL SPILL IS NOTHING, THE FESTIVITIES (AKA TIME TO PAY FOR YOUR DISGRACEFUL DEEDS) ARE JUST BEGINNING.)

    Blah bla, 3D this, programs that, constructs, this. STFU, and get your parasite ass to work and keep your semen in your out of felopian tubes you fucking maggots/animals/robots. There’s your interaction between ego/mind. You guys are already dead. You just don’t know it yet. Enjoy your culling.

    scott,

    how perfect of you to bring up entheogens. from your experience to mine, where did u do/participate in the ayahuasca ceremony? any recommendations? ive achieved this ego loss with other psychoactives, yet would still enjoy the richness of this ceremony (plus i hear it blasts you out on a rocketship) thanks for your time

    Dear Nessus,

    I have done ceremonies in Brazil and Colombia. The group I worked with in Brazil was a nice organization called Heart Of The Initiate, but they are no longer offering the trips. I would suggest researching groups in Peru and perhaps Brazil, these are the two countries offering the experience on a ‘legal’ level. If I hear of anything more I will post. And yes, it is a rocketship at first, then finishes a butterfly :-)
