John Ptacek’s article is excellent so are the question about it !
What does telling your ego that it can only be in your life by invitation mean to you?
*******We invite good-ego for survival, excitement and happiness however it can easily lead us to self-centered obsession - the bad-ego.
Can you share an experience where you were aware of your ego coming in uninvited and were able to ask it to stand down?
*******Every time we loose our patience and get defensive, the self-centered, bad-ego is in- charge. We need to watch our emotions to get a handle on bad-ego.
How can we cultivate ourselves to be able to see ourselves separately from our ego
*******We can see the self-centered ego from compassion in the heart, when we shift our awareness from mind to heart through meditation on the heart.
