This is like that episode of Friends where Phoebe tells Joey there are no selfless acts/gestures as you will garner self-satisfaction for committing acts one considers selfless.

I felt that when you said it’s like two people when you talk to yourself the person doing and the person observing and reacting to what your doing it’s actually amazing

Not sure why I get chills allover when watching this episode. Shot for shot, frame for frame it is scintillating. Need to watch it about 10 times to actually get what you are trying to get me to understand. It is on the surface and I'm searching the depths. You Sir, are crazy. Thank you

It seems so rare that a seeker works honestly through first hand experiences. What a breath of fresh air. And look where it has taken you: Simplicity = serenity. What an incredible realization. Thank you for sharing your journey!

Buddhism and enlightenment does not allow you to master your ego but to quell and subjugate it so that you become passive. This 'enlightenment' is a celebration of mediocrity. True mastery of one's ego involves much introspection, courage in the face of herd morality (overcoming the fear of what other's think of you), and constructive action towards cultivating civilisation (not activism, which is destructive by its very nature). People who are slave to their (herd) ego purport themselves as "empaths" but in reality are just serving their own ego and when someone comes along with a differing ideology (eg conservatism) the egoistical empaths all band together to tear down that person/institution. This is post-modernism in a nutshell. Paradoxically, the "empath" ideology is to denounce ego as "evil".

Very well explained. Thank you 🙏🏾

this video is amazing - it deserves way more attention!

Love your video brother! Was one of the highlights of my evening. 🙏

This guy has high endogenous levels of DMT. Great video!

Fear, separation, a longing to re-unite..... Identity, uniqueness, different... we constantly live in a conflicted state because we feel separate but somehow know that we come from the same source. We try to used the ego to justify this separate identity knowing that it is a false construct and we just sense that it is a house of cards. When we see the seer behind the thoughts the ego begins to shatter. It isn't needed and it begins to panic. Culture desperately wants you to spoil the ego because it makes you a consumer. Identity and separateness are systemic devices used by culture to mislead you. Remember the first four letters of culture are cult. When you meditate you begin to slowly dissolve the ego and the toxic affect of culture begins to recede allowing you to see the beauty, love and simplicity of life.

Wow! Thanks! I found a hidden gem of KZfaq!

Look at it this way if it helps: Your frustration of not being able to loose ego is the result of your ego itself demanding to loose itself and then not being able to do it. The answer to your question is the frustration itself. All that is after frustration is your ego again, still wanting to look for an answer and keep the frustration going when it already knows that there isn't any. I learned this perspective from UG Krishnamurti and I don't know if I could explain it to you. You should checkout the following links if my comment made any sense to you.

I struck upon a thought whether should i stop thinking. I forced myself into not having any ideas, beliefs, opinions in order to remove my self. But, thought is the only thing I can't stop. Its like I know the 'on' button for thought but not the permanent 'off' button. I however believe in J.Kishnamurti that when you see the truth, you see it instantly and get transformed. Similarly, when you know the root of thought, you are not able to think anymore. I do experienced the state where i was thoughtless, but if i know im thoughtless, its just another thought. Thought is a never ending series of llusion and self decieving. All this i am typing right now, however doesn't feel like the product of thought. Even though I haven't memorised any single bit of this comment, the observer inside is just letting out. It is a very delightful experience when you produce words which you just spoke out randomly or typed in boredom, and see their power. Most of the questions I think i cannot answer are just let out by this random wandering of mind. Even though, now my thought is aware of this entity, it seems to be powerless. So, when I speak out without any motive of getting an answer, I stumble upon the truth. But again, thought overcomes my mind after i have let out the truth. Thought rationalises what i just experienced and makes it worthless. I am again left unknown to the truth. Ending it here, its just another extraordinary moment here coming to a stop.

Your channel is gem thankful to find your channel....

Body, soul ,spirit your body is your iD Your soul Is your ego and your spirit is your super ego.

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Subbed and liked.

The ego is the condition self.

This was class! I just made a video on this channel to do with the ego and how most people strongly identify with the little voice in their head as who they are when deep down they are so much more, you are the higher awareness that shines beyond the thinking mind. :)

I think we ca really relate to what you say about talking to yourself and the egos, i am very happy you are able to put it into words and the whole editing is very good, its like a piece of art. always, someone asked me whats the most underrated KZfaq channel, and i said Northern Diaries Digital Media. You are doing a great job i look forward to every single video bro

I was telling my friend the other day, sometimes i look atound me and it just doesn't feel real but she thought it was weird . I just looked and felt like, yes this is my body, doing no action, but this doesn't feel real , the sight felt like a kind of a movie so who is watching,. It comes to me sometimes. Alone under the moonlight i feel the same dissociation

that was beautiful thank you

Loved your video they help a lot.

Watching the watcher The one doing the watching over the watcher is the super ego.

Good stuff. I had similar thoughts to the ones you described in the beginning, would have been nice if you told us your conclusion - if you think that was all ego, or which parts of the thinking were, and what you think about pride in general, is it beneficial?

I think the objective of ego death is a superficial enterprise to begin with it's just another state of consciousness no less or more valuable than any other, personally I am happy to hold onto my ego to affect an appropriate change in the world for the better, I see ego death as a glorified form of apathy, but that's only my opinion

Hey, I loved this. It has given me an urge to share. In Indian myths, what you are referring to as "I" is told through the story of Shiva. His name translates to "that which is not" and is just one name among many given to him. There's another popular saying "har har mahadev" that everyone is Shiva(written as mahadev here - first among gods). He is also known as a pillar of infinite ignorance, bhole nath(translates to the innocent one). Through these stories we are reminded that I am not this or that, I just am. An eternal silence, a maddening dance, the artist, the painter, the dancer, the master yogi(yogi is someone who practices the union of self and not self), the one close to all animals and life, the one who is beyond death, beyond time and death and has no beginning or no end. These are only fraction of things we know about I. Because I am everything, I am essentially nothing. Because I am infinite, I do not exist. These things any many others have been known by the masters since time immemorial. I am just conveying whatever little I know.

Thank you for sharing this knowledge brother 🙏🙏🙏...your visualization portrait is marvelous..🤩🤩....keep growing bro...

you are awesome!! thank you so much for making this!

Great. Very nicely made. great understanding.

What a gem, I would suggest to look into the works of Carl Jung, I think he expands upon what Freud did, I am also fascinated by the merging of western and Eastern Philosophy. When you say make things more "simpler", I assume you're saying get in touch with your instincts instead of getting lost in your head, that's a double edged sword because as you explained with Freud's Id, your instincts are pleasurable but also primal and animalistic, they can also lead you to make mistakes, sometimes horrible ones, I think the ideal way is to balance your instincts and ideals, your Id and the superego. An off topic question, are you planning to make feature films?

Thanks for your knowledge and dedication.

Gratitude is the antidote for pride! Feel grateful to Reality for having the chance in life to have expanded your consciousness instead of being proud, after all, free will is an illusion...we can only pick which master to serve: the ego or the higher Consciousness.

This is the best I’ve seen and heard for a very-very long time. Sincerely appreciate you’re art. True Art. Hi from Toronto. I am a friend of Barbara and Vladimir.

amazing work, you earned a sub

Great video ! Really enjoyed

Yet another beautiful video 👏

😂 this synchronization once again, keeps me in the flow of my 24s living a solution based existence in simplicity🌈🙏😇 ~ pleased to meet you and your channel you showed up in my feed after I watched a similar video, that had me, chuckling to myself because that particular episode ended on when you know you have an ego you have transmuted it, but then circumnavigating this realm in that frequency of I am not ego is still ego lol 😆~ better to stay invisible SHLAMA SHALOM NAMESTE 🙏 precious one

I know that in Abhidharma Buddhism and other Nikaya Buddhist schools, they believe that the self, or for that matter the person, is just a collection of subatomic particles and mental constituents. They also believe that through enough diligent meditation, you can see the subatomic particles in everything including your own body. Therefore, this is the way to extinguish the idea of the self. If we're all just quantum events then at the quantum level, everything from tables to people would look extremely similar since everything is made out of the same quantum particles. Thank you for this video! Would you ever consider doing a philosophy of religion video on Buddhism?

nice video, thanks!

This is an informative video. This reminded me that World Ego Awareness Day is coming up on May 11th this 😊

Deep thoughts

great video! you gained a new subscriber

This is beautiful…thank you🙏

Loved the Hindu quote. It's amazing that humans had such in depth wisdom at that time. Can't wait for the west to incorporate the east in its history, philosophy and other disciplines.

What you mentioned at the beginning happened to me during this whole weekend, thus I started to look for videos about ego in hope I could get to a defined conception about it and if it can be controlled or not... and... still can’t understand if it’s possible or I should just give up.

The ego is proud you are meditating because appearing mindful to others is something it values. The more you watch it the less influence it will have on your experience.

I like that you were able to put this in words. Especially when you notice the who hiding behind layers. I thought I was the only person who went through this entire process that you explained. I realize that we’re what I call, all in all and individuals in all, and that today is tomorrow, but o feel like 👍🏾 m searching for another piece or part to the puzzle to give me the big picture. Any advice?

Thank you Brother 🙏💙

Thanks bro.

We have to go beyond ego to find truth... the truth will set you free... seek and ye shall find... "God equals man minus ego..." Satya Sai Baba

Nice.

I love this channel and I've been wanting to get into contact with the person behind the video's for so long but i haven't been able to reach him.... Please see this

You are sooo amazing and your vedio are...... Thankyou for uploading all

Creatures have an internal thinking, but their purpose is different , Humans are searching for a Higher being.

Everyone has an ego, and it is not of Love. The ego is also not evil, although it is behind all acts we would consider evil. The ego is not a thing or an entity, it's just programming to take care of number one. This programming causes us to be self-servicing, self-centered, fearful, distrusting, defensive and aggressive. The ego is a sense of self, not something real or true. A sense of self is nothing tangible, nothing that can't be fairly easily overlooked, if its lack of realness is pointed out. The ego is programming that causes us to see life, ourselves and others through a particular lense; one tainted by fear, judgment, limitation, smallness and a sense of lack. The egoic programming creates a sense of being under attack or threatened by others and by life. The ego is in fear much of the time, and therefore divorced from Love. This fear is an illusion, an imagination of something fearful in the future; not based on an actual threat in the here and now.

The ego says ..your more than or less than ..seek out the ego to begin to loose it ..

Kill the ego all together and look to your higher self for direction.

Plz Collab with vedant rusty or someone coz your channels not growing , this channel should have more subs

❤

Hey this is from avakin siribandari jimmy

sublimation .. thanks

Great video brother but I would like to give you suggetion about your voice. You should narrate in cheerful and interesting way. Your voice seem mysterious and add seriousness to the video that should be interesting and uplifting.

Drink water when you are thirsty.

The Garden of Eden, Kingdom of God and Tantric ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Samanam ++++++++ The story of Sumeria about a Garden and a naked Couple and a subtle serpent is a profound imagery and narrative of the human psyche and why we are here for. It is the basis of Judaism and Christianity and abit of Islam but the religions don't seem to understand the huge import of high philosophy that it entails... Since the religions cannot understand the beautiful story because of its origin in SuMeru of Tamizh Tantra it is pertinent that the explanation must come from the original source of its formulation only and that is the transformation from the natural to the Spiritual.. I am going to take this into a series of expositions because it won't do justice with just one article seeing the immensity of the topic at hand. Relationship, Ego, Suffering, Ascension, God, Free-Will , Destiny and more are all in this one story of the Garden of Eden which was suppose to be the Kingdom of Heaven which in turn happens by the spiralling upward movement of Tantra ....

Does anyone know where this clip came from in 2:43?

I personally wouldn't use Freud's model for the ego. While ego isn't a universally understood thing, I think jungs model of a human psyche being the persona ego self shadow, and the animus is far more intuitive and carl Jung talks at detail about it. Just my opinion, though.

I am now in this phase where I am frustrated because of my existence. >:I

meh, too much esoteric thought gets in the way of growth. you're here for the experience, not ponder the orb.

This is so good 🤤

I thought I suffered :)

Great video! Learning how to stop thinking is mankind’s yet greatest task ahead. There is a video on how to stop thinking here on KZfaq by Barry Long. It will definitely disturb your mind.

The lies of Materialsm ... A WISE vid involving Sciences and Disciplines of study ! ☝️💯💪 Watch out for the ego ! 😮😵😁

Plot twist: the ego tricked you 😱

An ego talking about his ego

Mujhe ye bhang lene ke bad thoughts ate hain aur apko meditate karke lol

This dude clearly needs to stop thinking about himself SO much.

Islam The Beautiful Religion ( Be Just ) Quran 5:8 '' O ye who believe! stand out firmly for God, as witnesses to fair dealing, and let not the HATRED OF OTHERS TO YOU make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice.

Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily God is well-acquainted with all that ye do.''
