Ego, the hijacker of our True Consciousness

Ego, you are the hijacker of our true consciousness,

The source of all vanity,

The root of illusions,

The limited sense of self,

The illusory “I”,

Making me a judge,

Whereby my real divinity fudge,

Our mind starts inferring,

What the ego is preferring,

Seeing oneself as Hero,

And others as Zero,

Giving my demeanor a serious blow,

Creating a place for Satan to glow,

The Ocean considering itself as the bubble,

Such a dilemma,

Knowing the true “I am”,

Will lift up the veil of ignorance,

And help us to truly awaken our consciousness,

Let’s not allow ego to hijack our true consciousness.

Observe and accept your experience in this moment without judgement. Now, we shall do a gradual relaxation of our body muscles. Bring your awareness to your body. ...

They may feel that their wants and needs are unimportant, so they alter their personalities in order to make others happy. Often, we engage in people pleasing unconsciously or witness people around us doing that, but we often fail to comprehend the underlying causes of this tendency. Let’s analyze and understand the reasons behind it, and give it some contemplation. Some common factors behind it are:     • Low self- esteem     • A childhood trauma     • Avoidance of conflict      • Low self esteem:  People who have low self-esteem are dependent on the external validation, and approval of others to feel confident. They feel good, when others shower them with compliments. They unconsciously base their esteem on outer appreciation, and seek reinforcement of value from others. They also feel they are less worthy and deserve less in comparison ...
