The Voice in Your Head Does NOT Want You to Know THIS | EGO 101 Masterclass

[@ToddPerelmuter]

Human beings have had egos since the dawn of man. Today, with social media and online personas, now we have digital egos too. Our psyche is split in two, we live for the “gram” and we crave Likes and Follows. In my book, Digital Ego, I explore the nature of these newfound digital egos, what effect they are having on us, and how we can break free from the screens so we can live more fully, more authentically, and with more meaning and joy. Now available on Amazon at a.co/d/gom5sPG

[@HollyRogers-s3s]

I am pleased to say I don’t think I have a digital ego. I stay off of social media and use my phone for very limited things. When I am on screen for even a few minutes, I feel the pull and I put the phone down. I am trying to be more fully present in the moment, and have gotten in touch with my observing self. I enjoy watching some of your videos with my 8 year old nephew who has autism, and he makes some of the cutest comments. 😊 Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I can’t wait to be done with my 9 month intensive therapy program so that I can sell my possessions, and use my passport to travel the world!

[@mflorio88]

I will read your book 🙏🙏

I lived the life of a drug addict for 22 yrs, been clean many. i cant belive im still alive. God must have a bigger plan for me..❤

[@carmelgaffney9205]

You are amazing ❤

[@thadgrace]

Maybe you are g/d? Possibly, the plan for your life is to accept that. Perhaps you created that plan?

Paula, I’m a Sober, “Brother” in Recovery! The 40th year in Sobriety recently occurred in my life; this was such a perceived impossibility at a time in my life journey. I’m grateful for your presence in my journey, albeit thru a comment you posted. 🙏💜🙏 Namaste Sister!

God has taken on the role of an addict, and its part of the play, now it’s time to shine as the true and infinite supreme Self

Now imagine if only a small percentage of the human race would detach from ego and just witness the mind without engaging. We would see so much peace.

[@Weeflowerofscotland]

This video came to me when I really needed it. My ego is dying , it’s desperately trying to cling on , it’s causing so much pain but I know this is needed for me to be free. This touched my soul ❤ Thank you 🙏

[@jacquelineireland2273]

Oh that ego will get you. It's human to have it but by 'being ' you feel your real self. You and Eckhart teach power points in similar ways. So valuable and when practiced daily they can blossom quickly. I love it. I get all sparkly and my body gets tingly when i 'get it' because it does affect the body when you get it right.

[@Loveisallaroundus-c3k]

Love the sparkly tingles when you really get it right 🥰

You cannot quiet the mind(unless you do certain distractions) it dosnt know how to be quiet, let the thoughts come & go just don't attach to them..💚

[@geertmeertens-sk7lv]

You can quiet the mind without any distraction (although it requires training). The mind is the distraction, a very annoying distraction.

[@MrCalifornia209]

@@geertmeertens-sk7lvI’ve experienced that state of being. And only in that state was I able to use my mind (think) until it took over again. It’s a very profound and beautiful force. I believe that’s what people refer to the return of Christ consciousness.

[@geertmeertens-sk7lv]

@@MrCalifornia209 Did you try to return to Christ consciousness and did you succeed?

[@GeertMeertens]

[@jbird976]

The only currency the ego deals in is fear. That all it knows. It is like a scared animal. Reactionary and irrational. In most situations it is your visceral first exclamations....Learn to take a step back and pause before you speak. Observe what the ego wants you to say before you choose to commit to it. Great video, be well everyone 🙏❤️

[@ResoluteRonin]

Ego is the devil that fooled the world into thinking it does not exist.

[@Cheese-is-its-own-food-group]

There’s a passage in the Bible that says ‘Turn the other cheek’ and I think that really refers to a lack or decrease in ego. Think about it…if someone smacks you in the face for any reason, the ego is responsible for any reaction. Lack of ego will warrant a response instead of a reaction.

[@katarzynalindner594]

IT Has totally different meaning. Comes from Roman times. IT was about being equal.

[@Zerofreak3200]

You can not survive without the ego, but it needs to learn to be in service of us instead of control of us. Deepest thanks from my heart to you for perfectly explaining what the ego is ❤️🙏

[@h.neubert8770]

Absolutely can survive without an ego. It is a developmental stage one can shift out of through perceiving thought

[@tonykeane7524]

The mind is a great servant but a terrible master!

[@leslieleppert2050]

Sorry, but I do not agree. If you don't have an ego, we'd have no ability to contemplate, think or keep ourselves safe... Ultimately, the ego IS a part of you... The key is to accept what it has to provide in a healthy way. Unless you're talking about being egocentric then that's another thing... ​@h.neubert8770

[@doc2590]

I liked the puppy and learning how to ride the bike analogies. When I simply observe the thoughts or watch the thoughts I relax. How easy it is for the bike to wobble all over the place and sometimes I fall off and it hurts. Simply being here and now, is heaven on earth. When my mind is quiet, I have no problems, issues, stressors, complaints, wants, or even needs. I am practising staying on the bike and peddling through my days.

[@jwh8228]

Our ego is trying to protect us. It is fueled by fear from a much deeper place of survival. Well intentions that lead to hell.

[@cd-sq8bi]

Thanks Todd for keeping up the work. One thing I find irritating is all the supermodels meditating. Seems they didnt meditate for one minute in their life. Not very authentic ...for my "ego" of course 😊

I can see my EGO. Thanks to you. 🌴

[@AngelaStricklin]

Oh My, thank you so much for this. I really needed it today. As a former touring musician, I had the tendency to identify as such. After a car accident in 2015 rendered me totally disabled and I felt completely lost, as if I had nothing left to give. I've been working on fixing myself and the way I think about myself for about 4 years now. Meditation, yoga, and just learning who I am without all of that. But what you said about the Ego and Achievements really hit home. Thank you, again.

[@emiliaabeyta159]

Everyone, especially our political and religious leaders and the rest of us. Children do not have these problems. Children are in the moment. Children don't have prejudices. Unfortunately they are taught so many hateful things. if we listen to others WE MAY LEARN SOMETHING THAT MAKES SENSE. There is so much to learn about ourselves. I'm now following Todd Perelmuter because what he says makes sense.

[@leeroy7597]

Excellent EGO Enlightenment !

[@natureisallpowerful]

We need an ego,but a healthy one. Thanks for the wisdom Todd,always grateful 👍

[@Jewelmind]

Yes, this is so important. I hear a lot of people make it sound like you have to get rid of it.

[@neetaamonkar2438]

Good comes with bad. The world of duality is the problem. The ego grows in this realm. The right thing happens spontaneously when we are egoless, i.e. unselfish, unself- centered.

My EGO,... has destroyed me. 5:23 " SO MANY PEOPLE WHO RETIRE SUFFER IMMENSELY ".. 😫 that is ME., Im dieing. The Stress and Anxiety, Insomnia... led to severe depression. Mental and physical health 😧 I lost interest in everything. Im not enjoying life at all anymore. [ purpose, identity, structure, workplace atmosphere, coworkers, friends etc ] you don't know what you had, till it's gone.... im searching for anything that might help,... but, just knowing my job is gone, and im not returning. 😩

[@daniellefortin5609]

Look into shivambu, it can turn things around. Good luck... look for the lesson in your situation and grow through what you go through :)

[@leslieleppert2050]

You can live again right now. It's the phrase "being reborn" you will forget it all in the next life if you don't actually change this one first!

[@LPH-11]

I don't recommend this but I experimented with mushrooms. I took 6 grams and found out what ego was and how everything I've ever done revolved around my ego, everything! I knew if I gave up my ego, there was only love left. I couldn't fully give it up. In this experience, I realized everything had a purpose and it was perfect no matter what it was and it didn't need me to understand it, it just was.

[@TheOldHippiebilly]

I've had life-changing spiritual experiences under the influence of psychedelics. It's not for everyone, but it can be incredibly profound. Be careful out there. ❤✌

(Ps: this is not s joke, snd it's all true)! ...Anyhow thanks for this thumbed-up video that I really enjoyed, A+

[@simka321]

Ego is a great servant, but a bad master. That's why I like the way your limned the ego as a kind of pet to be tamed, rather than a wild beast to be hunted and killed. So, now that we agree that the ego cannot (and should not) be destroyed, what to do? I submit that, given all the misery, horror, and tragedy in the world today - all due to egoism and its discontents, we should not kill the ego but transform it. And the most promising direction in which that transformation can go is from ego to emeis - that is, from "I" to "We." The obviation of egoism, and the mass conversion of the personal ideology of identification from egoism to altruism, can only eventuate in a threefold win-win-win for humanity, for when the centripetal appetitive energies of my personal identity are de-centered from my little mortal body to our collective Superbody - the body of humanity at large - this will result in three boons: 1. "I" will no longer feel personal suffering about what happens to this tiny piece of flesh, but in experiencing the suffering of all in and as my Superbody, "I" will be more motivated to act for the sake of all 8 billion of us - only for the sake of the common good: "All for one and one for all." 2. There will be a radical decrease in the consumption of natural resources, which have heretofore been driven by egoistic desires and personal appetites with no consideration of the externalities of overconsumption on the other living beings on the planet. Prodigal consumerism and senseless waste, being the heart of the current world metacrisis will decline, if not vanish altogether. Wars and all other expressions of violence will disappear, because "I" am now everybody, our Superbody, and not just some terrified little "me" protecting his fleshed-encased vortex of endless appetites, his reputation, his bank account and nationality, and his personal property, seeking desperately to feed itself, protect itself, reproduce itself before death snuffs it out. 3. In acting for the Supebody rather than my mortal body, I will finally have achieved the age-old desideratum of immortality. Our Superbody will be nothing more than me myself, and "I" will have gained a source of a virtually infinite joy, love, and pleasure far exceeding any that "I" could have experienced as an isolated ego limited to the skin and five senses of this body, which is slated for the grave. The concentrated bliss and happiness of the whole human race will be equivalent to my bliss and happiness, multiplied 8 billion times over. When my personal identity is obviated, transferring who "I" am and what "I" identity with, moving its location from this pathetic mortal coil to the Superbody of humanity at large, after the necessary death of an ego that has always associated itself with this fallible flesh, "I" will be resurrected into a New Vessel: the All-Human Superbody. Those who have been initiated into this new universal religion of Universal Superhuman Altruism, will take the first step into their new life as repentance: forsaking their former idolatry of personal ego, and stepping into the light of altruism - meaning compassion, care, and the love of all, meaning that the health and happiness of Humanity becomes my ultimate concern. After having totally committed my personal identity to Humanity as whole, I will take on a new personal pronoun, replacing "ego" with "emeis" - that is, "I" with "We." This new pronoun will represent the renewed mind of the Sacred Human and our Holy SuperHumanity, who has died to the flesh, buried the ego, and then been resurrected as the deathless Emeis. This resurrection is Humanity's only hope
