RE: Blog retracted by author, My Citicism of Alex Jones was Ego Based

in #informationwar7 years ago (edited)

I've played around with the idea of escaping ego too. I think I kind of gave up on it. Even the idea of being egoless can be appealing to the ego. I seen a couple of people who I suspected may have been egoless. Eckhart Tolle and Osho, but even then for me it's really tough to say with any certainty if it's possible, or if they did it for real. Nevertheless, outside of complete dissolution of it I think we may be able to become more or less egoic to certain degrees. Anywho, I wish you the best of luck on the journey and hope that you can get there. I know it's been portrayed as arduous to accomplish but those who claim to have done it tend to describe it as effortless after the fact. That in and of itself is kind of a mind blowing contradiction of ideas. Maybe it's like riding a bicycle, its the hardest thing to do when you don't know how, but after you do, it's as easy as riding a bike.

Very perceptive of you! I am really into BMX Cruisers! And in all honestly, I do the TM to maintain control and not be angry all the time. Basically it enhances my game-show-host type personality. I've also noticed TM has greatly enhanced my creativity, patience, and goal manifesting.

Also, thought about how I let that inner bratty/angry person I thought thought I left behind come out when my ego was not satiated with praise. And when I didn't win a prize in the 2018 Inforwars Contest, I lashed out in the meanest way possible. And I realized that those dark emotions actually opened me up to the Dark Side! Pretty interesting and weird how perceptive George Lucas was with the whole lore of The Force he put into Star Wars.
