I guess Ego is an Illusion most of us prefer to live with …. Making no sense ?? Read on…
What is you ??? Who are you ? ? How many of us can really think for a while and answer??
Are you your Name ? Job ? Car ? House ? Horse ? Family ……. Oooops I can go on and on…. But are these you ? They all give us an outer ‘ You’ … But Does that make you????
Nopes …. The ” Inner you ” …..You … Yourself ….. is different .. . that only YOU know. But inspite of knowing this we try to attach ourseleves to the limitless things of the ” Outer self ” and try to identify ourselves with it…
In the process we lose oueselves… So What is ego?? Ego is this wrongful identification of Self with the ” Outer self ” … and this manifests itself into ourself so much that we live with it & we identify ourself with Ego. Our ego is a mix of Emotions & Thoughts . Only when we can detach ourself from these two we can be ourself.
Someone has said : ” Life is a Drama and the stage is Set…. We are actors…. ” May be that we embody ourself so much with the role tht we forget ourself … I guess It’s time we remember ourselves…. Feel the ” real self ” … It will be a great ” Home Coming ” …….
By recognising self …. We will rise above the life’s problems with better self consciousness … We will be Happy , Calm & Strong … We will be at peace with Self.
This is called inner peace . Silence of mind.
Hmmmmm…… Sleepy 
Cheeriooooooo.
hi, very well written. i have never come across anyone who has explained the concept of the ego so beautifully and in such simple terms. i’ve only heard jargons which were beyond my realm of comprehension till date.
