Ego beware

Ego beware

ego is self we believe we are

and this self wishes for a long life

a life of happiness and recognition..

threats to the ego are encountered warily

and with stealth and flex..

the most serious threat comes with a

denial of existence..a red alert..!

it is then that the ego can assume the form

of that which threatens..

ego as small self expands to Large

and claims to a knowing of the unity of all

and for a moment wins us over to

a concept placed on a pedestal..

ego beware...!

"Transcending the ego, gaining an objective view of the "ego-making machine" is self-realization. Getting caught in it ceases.
Liberation is when the reality-constructing machine is exposed. Concepts are seen as they arise and do not influence action. Action that arises in "one" who is liberated is traditionally called non-action.
Then one might ask how can any movement be initiated? Here, the nondual approach is recognizing pure consciousness as the wisdom of that which works only as a unit. The unit comprises all that we know and the unknowable. Any interference of mind modules/thought mechanisms is not the liberated state but a returning to a state of hypnosis."
