The Ego Psychology Experiment… Is It Possible to Live Without Your Ego?

Can you imagine your life without your ego?The miracle I discovered is my life is so much easier and free when I am not operating from my ego.

Picture that for a moment… Every problem we have comes from the ego…every one. Do you realize this? It is quite astounding when you truly get the magnitude of that concept.

“The egoic mind is completely conditioned by the past. One of the most basic mind structures through which the ego comes into existence is identification.” Eckhart Tolle.

This blog is about my experiment with the ego psychology and is it possible to live without it? What’s fascinating is by understanding the ego that is one way you can be free of its grip.

In looking at this let’s start with taking a minute to stop and think about what the problems are that you think you have.

It can be anything from I don’t have enough money, I don’t have enough love, I’m not thin enough, good looking enough, smart enough. I am over worked, stressed out.

Has it ever occurred to you why you think you are having these problems? Yes I said think, because that is the problem, the thought.

Have you ever wondered why you are over worked and stressed out? It’s probably because you are putting too much pressure on your self.

There are people in your life you want to impress or live up to their expectations of you. Somehow some way your ego is trying to get approval, otherwise you would not have those problems at all. It is really fascinating when you really look at the ego psychology, that way.

Let’s face it if we weren’t attached to our age then it wouldn’t matter when we saw someone younger and healthier. If we weren’t attached to our income then it wouldn’t matter if someone makes more money or lives in a nicer house, because if we are not attached to our age, looks, where we live or how well we do something or don’t do something, it would be difficult to have any problems. I dare you to try it. First you have to live with no ego and then see if you have any problems.

I’m not saying that you can’t have some type of tragedy in your life that would cause you to have a problem, but then again it is your decision to make if that tragedy is a problem or an opportunity for growth. We create our own problems just like we create our own happiness, it is a decision.

When I first realized this it was quite the revelation, let go of my ego and I am free, although that is not as easy as I thought it would be. My inspiration for this concept came from Eckhart Tolle. He is a wonderful spiritual teacher who is really operating with no ego. In my life I don’t think I have had the pleasure of meeting anyone quite like him.

I kept thinking to myself how does he do that? His calm and centered manner inspired me to start an experiment where I would go through my day without my ego and see if it can be done. And if so what would be the benefits?

How did I start down this amazing path to what I found was freedom? Everyday I have a ritual that I do, I read inspirational and spiritual books followed by mediation and visualization. Of course I thought that would be the best time to start my new challenge.

The next day before I started my morning mediation I added, “Universe I am now giving you my ego. I have no need for it so I gladly release it to you. I then visually watched it float up and out of body until it disappeared.

I will say that since I started this ego psychology experiment there are times that I slip back into the same old feelings of identifying my thoughts with who I am.

Situations will occur and I will feel rejected or upset about a situation and then I stop myself and say, “Hey, who gave me back my ego? I didn’t ask for it back that I can remember.”

Eckhart Tolle makes it look so easy! I am not even sure he is really human; I think he was dropped from another planet actually but that is another story. :)

I decided I would have to let it go all over again, the first time obviously didn’t take, which is normal when you are trying something new.

Right after that came my big “ah ha moment” When I noticed what was happening and released my ego again the feelings that had previously came up for me about feeling rejected or upset in someway didn’t exist anymore. Now that is huge! My big revelation at that moment was, what’s the big deal? I didn’t take my situation personally, because my ego was gone. It was something that just happened, period end of story end of drama.

I love the way Eckhart Tolle explains the ego in his book “A New Earth”, “Complete identification with thought and emotion.”

For me when I no longer need to be right, no longer need to win and no longer need approval, those are signs that my ego has left the building. I have learned that I am not my ego and only if I mistake it for who I am, can noticing it in myself become threatening to my sense of self.

I want to offer all of you the same gift so I am asking you to also take the ego psychology challenge and see for yourself for a couple of days and see how miraculous it can be.

You will soon realize that your life is so much easier, simpler and yes of course that leads to happier. Don’t forget to let us all know about your experience whether its good, bad or just what it is, sharing the benefits of this type of shift is important in creating a happy whole planet for us all to live on.

I wish for all of you all the happiness and peace the Universe has to offer!
