Earthy Grasping Oddity =E.G.O.

Your ego loves you so much that it will deceive you at every turn in order to remain in control of you.
We are personalities the word is from the Latin word persona ,which  means a mask, we all wear masks and our most un-endearing mask is the ego.
While the ego is in full charge of us, there is little or no bother from it ,however  when we embark upon a new venture such as meditation, then the problems begin.
At first very craftily the ego remains still and sometimes even supportive of our new venture, until that is when we begin to ask ourselves some very deep and probing questions, such as, who are we?
can we live forever? Is death the end ,or  just the beginning? When we face these questions in meditation, it opens up within us a deeper and more penetrating level of consciousness, and with this
deeper level of consciousness comes in its train a more acute and searching level of awareness.
This is where the ego begins to attack our resolve at keeping on with the regular meditation ,by
trying to undermine what you are doing ,maybe  by bringing up negative thoughts such as ,"you  are wasting your time on this ,why  not go out and enjoy yourself" ,the  ego realises  that if you continue along this road of self discovery you will see exactly what the ego is, and  this it cannot permit to happen.
So with every trick in the book the ego will try and deflect you from going any further into your self exploration, just be prepared for this attack ,it  can be overcome ,millions  have already done it, and even more than that ,have  actually made a friend of the ego and assured it that it is safe ,however  though  it is no longer in charge of you, the ego has then been transcended and the higher self (soul) is now in charge.
