Why are some unable to surrender the ego?

2 posts in this topic

I wasn’t able to surrender my ego and I want to know why. The reasons I’ve come up with is:

  • Immaturity: If you aren’t mature enough to handle the Truth you won’t do it.
  • Priorities: If you value survival and sanity over Truth you won’t go all the way.
  • Attachment: If you’re too attached to the dream you won’t let it go.
  • Fear: If you’re too afraid of the unknown (Truth) you won’t face it.

Another question I have is why did it begin to happen if I wasn’t ready?

Almost no one can transcend the ego because it's a real system, an evolutionary structure of enormous power that drives humans and makes them function like a vast, coordinated organism.

To transcend the ego, you must understand that it is precisely the ego that wants to transcend itself, and you must understand all the forces, the energetic layers that bind you to the reaction and reward system that keeps you trapped.

You must see with complete clarity everything that drives you and integrate it. Understand that you are that, and while you are that, take a step above the level of attachments, fears, and desires; then your mind will lose its limitations and become total. Oh, and you must also stop thinking that reality is a "dream" and you are going to see the "truth". Just open your psyche.
