聽神談【如何脫離「小我(ego)」的掌控?】
當你對你真正是誰(Who You Really Are)的了解愈多,你的自我(ego小我)便愈小。
當你完全認識你真正是誰,你的自我便會完全消失。
你的自我是「你以為你所是的誰」。它與「你真正是誰」毫不相干。
有個自我是沒問題的,事實上,是非常沒問題的。
因為為了要經驗你在這個相對世界(relative world)裡,
你想像自己是一個分離的存在,「自我」是一個必要的工具。
摘自《與神為友》第5章
Put another way, the larger your understanding of Who You Really Are, the smaller your ego.
When you know Who You Really Are fully, your ego is fully gone.
Your ego is who you think that you are. It has nothing to do with Who You Really Are.
It is okay to have an ego. In fact, it's very okay, because an ego is necessary in order for you to have the experience you are now having, as what you imagine to be a separate entity in a relative world.
