Alan Watts Guide To Overcoming The Ego | "The Ego Is Purely Fictitious"

[@funhousemirror]

This is one of the most beautiful lectures I’ve heard from Watts. What a brilliant, representative symbol of the human species. I think this seminar should be required material in every school in the country.

How can I separate from the ego?

[@BigTaukius]

@@JasonStanford-cv9bp meditation could be a first step, making your your mind still, peeling the layers of your being and getting to the very core of it. The ego still remains present but you are no longer overwhelmed by it, it is a long road but you will get there.

I is ego.

[@karlvalentin9581]

@@JasonStanford-cv9bp You don't need to, because you are already "separated". You are Not your ego. Never was, never will be. Very roughly: ego is some sort of simulated self by your mind/ratio/thinking. You could as well ask; "how can a blacksmith separate from his killn and anvil..."

[@KingdomThoughtz]

If you believe that you are the ego, then you are. If you believe that you aren't, then you aren't. You are what you believe. I know this answer isn't simple but learning to choose your beliefs take time. Hope this helps, good luck!
