“With the egoic consciousness having become so dysfunctional, and now having at our disposal all these enormous technologies and scientific advances, if nothing changes the ego will use those things - as it already has been doing - and will amplify the technology that we now have.

“Because you are obsessed with the idea of past, present, and future, you are forced to think of reincarnations as strung out one before the other. Indeed we speak of past lives because you are used to the time sequence concept... You have dominant egos, all part of an inner identity, dominant in various existences. But the separate existences exist simultaneously. Only the egos involved make the time distinction... a thousand years in your past or in your future - all exist now.” ThinkingYearsIdeasPastUsedSpeakHealingExistenceIdentityInvolvedThousandEgoConceptsVariousObsessedDistinctionOur FutureReincarnationThousand YearsDominantOur PastYour FutureSequenceYour PastPast LifePast PresentPast Present And Future Author:Jane Roberts

“The truth is that we are a part of God. God could not have created anything except out of his own consciousness. We're all his dream, and our duty in life that God has assigned to us, that the universe has placed squarely in our laps, is to find out who we really are. "Gnothi seauton," as the Greeks used to say. "Know thyself." But to know thyself, if you trace it back, to the deeper and deeper levels, you discover that that self is not your body or your ego or your personality or your country or anything, that's just a sack of self-definitions that you carry around with you” IfsKnowsSelfCountryDreamBodyUsedUniverseLevelsConsciousnessDutyPersonalityTruth IsEgoDefinitionsDeeperYour BodyGreekLapThyselfKnow Thyself Author:Goswami Kriyananda

“If your own strong ego clashes with other strong egos, you not going to get anywhere. I studied psychology and learned about the many parts of us that we need to integrate so we don't walk around feeling disconnected: personality, soul, ego.

Your ego is there to boost you up, if recognized and used correctly.” IfsWayNeedsFeelsSoulFeelingsUsedAsksStrongWalksPsychologyPersonalityEgoClashIntegratingBoostDisconnected Author:Agapi Stassinopoulos
“You can use reading as a food for the ego. It is very subtle. You can become knowledgeable; then it is dangerous and harmful. Then you are poisoning yourself, because knowledge is not knowing, knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom has nothing to do with knowledge. Wisdom can exist in total ignorance also. If you use reading just as a food for the mind, to increase your memory, then you are in a wrong direction.

“Realisation of love can never come so long as there is the least desire in the heart, or what Shri Ramakrishna used to say, attachment for Kâma-Kânchana (sense-pleasure and wealth). In the perfect realisation of love, even the consciousness of one's own body does not exist. Also, the supreme Jnana is to realise the oneness everywhere, to see one's own self as the Self in everything. That too cannot come so long as there is the least consciousness of the ego (Aham).” HeartLongDoeSelfBodyUsedDesireWealthPerfectPleasureConsciousnessEgoSupremeOnenessAttachmentRealisingRealisation Author:Swami Vivekananda
