[Seraph909]

If one spontaneously experiences the total death of the ego beyond any doubt, grieves the loss, surrenders to that truth and then continues to play the game for the sake of others knowing at all times The Universe is Perfect, then "How to keep a new Ego from taking up residence"? I see it for what it is, but it is there. :(

[SageBodisattva]

@Seraph909 "Death of ego", is probably a misleading misnomer since the ego never really goes anywhere. The only thing that dies is the conditioning to the ego program that predominates a self from a ruling seat. The deconstruction of this programming relegates the ego to only a supportive role to intuition. The ego is actually pretty useful in navigating circumstances for opportunities to glean benefits that service our basic needs, but that's about it. The ego has no buisnes running the show.

This was an awesome video. Its too bad its too long for most peoples attention span. Most videos here are 10 min or less. Sage doesn't play that way though.

[SageBodisattva]

@alamedvav Thanks for the kind word. This video was a massive undertaking. I know it won't be watched by too many because of the length, but that's okay. I have tried out doing some short videos lately, but your right; I tend to go over 10 minutes.. I don't expect that many people to watch them anyway because the content is not a popular thing. The quality of the audience always means more then the quantity.

heres a question for you sage if god is real then what made god and what made that god and it never ends but there is no point so whats the point? nothing is everything and everything is nothing? im lost i dont understand why why some higher power would make us and do all this its questions but if we get the answers there is all ways more questions

[SageBodisattva]

@bloodraven2471 I dislike using the word God. It's useless. If you are asking about some separate deity of higher power that created us but is not apart of us, then I say there is no such thing. If you are asking about the wholeness, total awareness, then I would say there is no point other then a game of hide and seek. Total awareness creates it all. What created total awareness? We have no frame of reference to answer that. The best we can do is follow awareness and see where it takes us.

[Seraph909]

Like a lightening strike through my chest I realized “I” was not in charge, but an instrument of Higher Consciousness, I knew it as solidly as I knew rain was wet. Three days later I suddenly knew I was that Higher Consciousness; I & ALL were spirit of love beyond love as we know it.  I remember but don’t experience it now, but I know it, live it, but wish I could experience that Love for All creation here, now, always.

I really enjoy the sharp and crisp nature of the monologue :). I feel; feeling is a beautiful part of being; the attainment of sustainable happiness is possible; if one can detach happiness from having anything in particular. One can create the right circumstances by cultivating the mind, gratifying the spirit and maintaing the body to the best of our ability; in order to set the odds in our favor; and increase the sustainability of happy being. Love and happiness are very similar experiences.

I look forward to ascending the mind when you speak
