I bow to the divine teacher (soul, trust self) within me.
Buddhism believes in the non duality of life. In layman terms our “Ego” is fictitious, our true self is the only real person inside us.
Our “Ego” is the other gal/guy that inhabits our mind.
Divine teacher is real, solid.
The “Ego” is created, transparent, made up in childhood for identity. We can not trace our “Ego” back to a source.
He/She is not real.
Our “Ego” is highly biased, judgmental, and never feels equal to any other “Ego”.
That does cause problems, turmoil with other Ego’s.
I wonder if identical twins are exempt from this with each other.
Seems those two Ego’s would be very similar.
You could actually see yourself in three dimension, like others see you. That must be weird.
This created Ego is the pain in the ass that craves approval, status, superiority, pleasure, anger, revenge and self worth.
He/She is the one feeling disrespected, outraged over others behavior.
My true self (soul) can be an observer, and gaze at the Ego’s crisis from a distance.
If we do not grasp the Ego’s emotional dilemma, we thrive.
Reality is much clearer from this perch.
