What is an ego-ectomy?
If you look up the word ectomy you come across a definition that tells you that the suffix
“ectomy” often used in medicine, means to remove. Then with more research you will find that the word Ego is a Latin word meaning “I”.
I have had some very personal and real experiences that I would not wish on my worst enemy. It is through these experiences that I have realized that I have undergone an egoectomy.
In other words, I am no longer the sum total of anyone else’s total thoughts and opinions. I am my own person. It’s me, the real me full of attention and serenity.
I have realized that I am no longer attached to the meaning of me as if it were for others. I am not the person that others think I am. The “I” is removed from my current awareness and replaced by “we”. The “We” is the culmination of mind, body and spirit driven by the pure essence of doing good and becoming a channel for higher consciousness and the good of all.
I have had the “I” removed from my consciousness as a direct result of the learning experiences that have led me to where I am today. It is a sobering place to be. Realizing that what people think of you doesn’t serve you in any way. Realizing that it is just an obstacle to truly living the “we” life.
Incredibly, it is also of great value to mention that the only difference between sickness and wellness is a prefix. The letter “I” being replaced by the letters “We”.
It is this realization that has guided my meditations. It is truly amazing the freedom of my
spirit I find It’s like I’m cut off from who I used to be, caught up in what others may think, and worried about my reputation as a member of the community, only to realize I’m really not the person everyone thinks I am. That I am of more substance and depth. That I live this life only to serve and help others realize their potential to be as great as I feel.
To be awakened even for a moment to the truth of life, the meaning of existence and the virtue of reality.
This folks is an ego-ectomy. The true consciousness of life, Love and meaning. It is the most important and life-changing awareness of all that is.
