OUR EGO IS OUR DICTATOR, 2

[This is a reprint on my post of March 15, 2014]

We hear of a person's life being changed...and it is!..but what must change first is our reason for desiring change.

We get Soul change when we are no longer trying to change in order to get anything including peace of mind.

Peace of mind generally is the cover story we tell ourselves when we're really seeking ego satisfaction...financial security, to love and be loved, personal glory (if only in the form of agreement that we're right). These are self-determined objectives. We can and will change in order to get them but that seldom brings the peace of mind we think we're really seeking.

These ego-based wants masquerade as needs, and become the God of our understanding, fooling only us. Their sustaining root is our desire to believe that i am and you are not.

As long as we believe there is a you to resist, our ego is our dictator.

We go to God for God...that is all.

Thank you.
