QUESTION: Can the ego create illusions of happiness or anything positive for that matter.
ANSWER: Yes, never underestimate the tricks of the ego. The ego will help you remain in denial about the things in your life that need healing by helping you put on a fake mask of happiness, health and contentment. The ego will keep you fearful of change and it will help you justify your repetitive patterns that truly no longer serve your highest good. Our egos blind us and keep us in the darkness of lower self re-creations over and over again making it difficult for us to access our higher consciousness because we are too busy projecting our issues outside of ourselves onto other people. Instead of spending time in inner reflection really connecting with our true being allowing ourselves the time to SEE and FEEL what is going on in our own life, we are more interested in looking at the chaos, dysfunction and pain in other people’s lives so we can keep ourselves distracted and feel better about our selves.
The ego is deceptive because it creates a filter (veil of illusion) that distorts the way our mind perceives everything. This veil keeps us on the outer path of denial and projection instead of the inner path of contemplation, self transcendence and authenticity. It takes soul strength, determination and brutal self honesty to transcend the ego. We have to be willing to see it working within us before we can take dominion over it. When we finally decide to face God and integrate more light into our egos ~ we will have to face the SELF! The things within us that we have been in denial about will come to the surface. Many people who embark on the spiritual path of ascension to claim more light, joy and peace find themselves in a period of darkness as all the stored anger, pain, resentment, denials and distorted beliefs – we have stored in their subconscious – rise to the surface to be cleared. Depression, anxiety, fear and confusion are normal as we step into our truth. The serpentine lies we have created must be brought forth into our conscious awareness so we can see them and heal them. Otherwise, they will remain buried in the depths of our ego and shadow consciousness and these lies and distortions will keep us stuck in the dramas of karmic circumstances and the wheel of reincarnation.
Many people often say during this difficult time period where their entire energetic system is being reconstructed that they wish they could go back to the days where they were in denial like the rest of humanity because it was so much easier. However, the work we put forth towards our ascension is worth it because we are returning to our truth and aligning ourselves with our higher soul. Once this energetic merging occurs, our insecurities will decrease because we will have absolute knowingness of our connection to Source energy. We will have had a direct experience of this agape love and we will know that everything that has ever occurred to us was a stepping stone that got us to this exact space of re-member-ing who we truly are. A large portion of things we were struggling with will simply disappear as the light of our higher being continues to purify our system. Our life will unfold with ease and grace because we are now creating with conscious awareness. And when a new soul lesson is brought forth to evolve our souls to a new level, we will not resist it. We will face it and we will move through it knowing that we are not alone….and never have been.
So stay focused on what you want. Stay focused on the ascension of your soul. Know that everyone has to go through a major period of spiritual detox before we are able to raise our vibrations high enough so our physical bodies and our chakra systems can safely integrate the very high vibrational energies of our higher souls. Remain in gratitude for this opportunity to cleanse and purge lifetimes of stored pain you have been carrying around for a very long time. Surrender to the process of soul transmutation and allow your entire being to be purified and alchemicalized so you can turn your lead (darkness) into gold (light). Have absolute faith that your higher soul and ascension teams are aware of everything going on within you and your higher soul will merge into oneness with you in perfect divine timing. ~Sabrina

ego makes everything not as fun. in fact, i'd deplore being too excited all the time, just cuz i gets a tad attention. very wearisome. .......have adhd as it is. .....ego beliefs are by themselves, the opposite of honoring all people equally.
AO...LOL no, not you! :)
Thanks, Feather I need to hear that right now.
This text is speaking to me.. :)
That'll work, Phylos! :)
Yeah, ugly little spud, isn't it? More folks should get theirs dry-cleaned, starched, pressed, hung up and plastic-wrapped.
That's beautiful, Marique...Your NDE's are the most fascinating I've heard of. Thank you for sharing.
We do need the ego to help keep us safe which is what it was originally for but it took that job and ran with it.
Until we learn to recognize when we're being led around by our ego it'll continue to try to run and ruin our lives. Part of becoming self aware is when we learn just what our ego is and how it has always controlled us...that's when we can get our control back. Nasty little thing, the ego.
This really resonated with me. When I had one of my NDEs and went through my life review, the first layer to be peeled away was the ego aspect of being human and I was shocked with what I saw. It was hard seeing all the choices you have made in your life and realizing all the people's lives who you have affected some, some in a good and positive way and some in a hurtful or negative way. I believe that it that part of the dying process that is to let you let go of the ego and forgive yourself so your spirit is not held down with regrets and get an understanding and a picture of where your ego had lead you to behave the ways that you had. I had in that split second learned to forgive myself for my frailties, fears, and any hurts I had inadvertently done to others...It is amazing the things that the ego does that affects your interactions with others....misplaced pride, stubbornness, pain withheld inside and taken out on others, slanted thinking, prejudices and many other not so positive things. When I was revived I came back I had to forgive myself for all the ways I had mis-stepped in life and it was the most difficult thing that I ever had to do. But the light of goodness and joy was infused in me when I went wherever I went, and guided me to give myself a break and forgive myself. My ego was enormous because of my complete lack of confidence in my self worth and my self loathing for not living up to the perfection that I expected of myself and had nearly eaten me alive, but then I was medically revived and the experience was over but the memory of most of it stayed with me. The light that glowed and enveloped me with overwhelming feeling of being so totally loved when I reached the end of the tunnel helped me let go of the stranglehold that ego driven life and desparately unhappy life. By learning to accept and forgive myself I was better able to forgive others, which really is what living is all about. Embracing individuals no matter what differences there are. Great post, it made me do some reflecting and a good reminder about what I had learned.
The thing we all need to remember is our path is a process...it takes a long to time for some because there is so much releasing to be done but once we get it done it's well worth it.
Really great to see everything is going well for you.
