Sounds funny doesn't it? It is what it
exactly states, putting the ego on a diet. From psychology to spirituality is
it often mentioned, in one way or the other, about putting the ego on a diet,
in other words quelling the ego from its thirst, its lustful ways.
I have deliberately put myself into various
different environments to see which environment is less about feeding off of
each others ego, and more about putting the ego on a diet. Sadly, very few
environments were about quelling the ego, putting the ego on a diet, especially
on the internet, instead the feeding off of each others egos seems epidemic.
Why don't people like me feel comfortable
within these environments? Why do so many others feel comfortable within these
environment and uncomfortable within environments of dieting the ego? The same
old adage, you are meant to be where you are most comfortable, for what ever
reason.
Imagine threatening to take a
multinationals wealth and power away from them to any extent, the normal
response is to penalise and/or incarcerate this threat in some way, any way.
Now, imagine exposing a spiritually aware person feeding off of other people's
ego is going to lead to. Often the same old act of penalisation and incarceration
in some way, any way, is implemented, as experienced by myself and by others
many times over by light and love and/or unconditional loving people.
So pointing out an obvious is negative and
even of toxic vibrations, but to call anyone not of your own negative or of
toxic vibrations isn't!!
This is exactly the way it is today, sadly
enough. Any ego gorging itself off of other people's egos seems to react in the
same old way, but the present gorging in the spiritual sector is suppose to
represent a new more advanced or higher vibrative consciousness!! Now imagine
being one of a few people trying to guide people to put their own egos on a
diet, in other words quelling the control the ego has over us at present. What
new more advanced or higher vibrative consciousness? The same old adage in
relation to the ego, penalise and incarcerate anything that threatens our
feeding off of other people's egos.
Yes, by all means learn to support each
other in a more loving peaceful manner, but not at the cost of fattening up the
ego. As it is of the present question of climate change, our ego, while gorging
on what the multinationals have created, will be in defence of our own
participation in climate change. The threat of further taxes exasperates this
threat even further.
As I replied to the questioning of climate
change: Yes, another argument against
climate change is that weather, simular to what we are presently experiencing,
occurred many times over human history.
Yes
June, but how many glaciers where around back in the 1800's? How many explored
glaciers of the 1800's are still around today? Couple this with things like how
much forest is still standing, that we are polluting the earth on a massive
scale, that the ozone layer is thin and wholly and that we are phenomenally
abusing energy on a huge scale, today is nothing like anything in the past. It
all makes a difference to the environment therefore the weather June.
So
should we have to pay higher taxes for our indiscretions? No, for the
multinational have been feeding off of our ego's for years now, they are the
one's that should have to pay, not the people they are feeding off of.
Extract: You’ll be
glad you did: Needing fewer ego-boosts gives you your mind back to focus on your
priorities, making the best use of your options and opportunities. A leaner ego
diet also makes you less gullible. Like a kid with a sweet-tooth who can be
lured into danger by anyone dangling candy, people who need lots of praise can
be readily manipulated. The hungry are soon eaten. When you’re hungry for
praise, it shows. People can tell you crave to hear. They’ll sing your praises
until you’re feeding out of their hands. When your ego-appetite is tamed,
you are put in solid possession of your soul, your life and what you want to do
about it, less distracted by your need for approval.
Yes, as I have stated many times over, making
the best of what is, not the worse. A fat ego will always desire to see
everything not of itself as being negative, the worse scenario. Is feeding off
of other people's egos negative to people like me? My ego, to be honest, would
most definitely say yes, but wisdom just says to my ego, "It is simply a
consciousness lost within its own creation, nothing more, nothing less."
The creation being, that we are epidemically feeding off of each other s egos.
It is epidemic because this is the conscious environment the multinational's
egos have deliberately created, it is purposely epidemic. Of course
the natural remedy for this is to put the ego on a diet. How many obese people
desire to go on a diet unless they have to or desire to?
As is stated in the above," A leaner ego diet also makes
you less gullible. Like a kid with a sweet-tooth who can be lured into danger
by anyone dangling candy, people who need lots of praise can be readily
manipulated."
Look at how the approval rating for people like
me has dropped since the epidemic of feeding off of other people's egos has
escalated, it doesn't worry me for a very good reason. Yes, as I have stated in
previous posts, tame the ego, put the ego on a diet, which is becoming even
more disdainful to more and more people it would seem.
So what is the remedy? It is so simple, become aware
but at the same time self-honestly become aware. For starters, become aware of
egoistic epidemics as of feeding off of each others egos, however, as I stated
before, "you are meant to be where you are most
comfortable." Try to also become aware, that when the ego is at its most
comfortable, is when the biggest price for the ego to be comfortable is payed.
My ego is not comfortable in being of honest truth and of self-honesty but that
is how the ego works and plays with us.
