I have a question for you

[????????]

Killing the ego is one of the worst things a psychonaut can do.

I think this whole killing thing is bad worded... maybe a misnomer? As a friend said, nothing dies... is just an awareness that grows. I agree with your post, anyone who proclaims he/she wants to kill his/her ego is deluded. What is it you want to kill? it's a bit of an act of self aggression if you think about it. But I used to want to do it so..... :roll:

I think a better term would be "ego-transcendence".

find > examine > tolerate > understand > conclude > transcend > reprogram
and you will have the ego you need, one that is your friend and will not lie to you, because it was trained to protect you from the bad wolf...

JFC . Talking about ego death has nothing to do with killing anything . Its about stopping your ego thinking it is / being the boss . Limiting its influence .

I think the term ego death is responsible for a lot of confusion , and bad trips . I never liked it and think it should be replaced with something else .

How about ego metamorphism?

You will always have your ego, it never 'dies', it will never go away. It's reflections and working process simply change.

As to answer the original question about 'thinking'

How do you know we are thinking? What IS thinking? I'm merely a monkey on a keyboard in the worlds largest laboratory, being studied from above. I'm not thinking, but those watching me might be..... :shock:

How about becoming the person you always wanted to be ?????
You think it's impossible?? It's easier than you thought!!!!
Simply do the things you like to do and the things you don't like to do, you should stop doing them. Just accept change and then change yourself!! That is change!! Then think about the things you have to do and the things you don't have to do. Try to think why you had to do the things you had to do and the things you didn't have to do and observe how they were either labeled as "well done" or "not well done" by yourself. Afterwards find out how you can change the issues that were labeled as "not well done" and then make decisions about how you want to do it instead and maybe think about how you will accomplish that or leave that until you the point when you need to know what exactly you will have to do has come. Also think about the things you didn't have to do and why you did them... on the other hand consider the things you had to do and think about why you had to do them and then decide whether you really need to do them as you did before or maybe you can go completely in another direction, if that is possible for you, and if you really want it. Of course the most important thing there is a clear head and the will to reach the goal you have set for yourself. The second most importang thing is a good observing skill of oneself, in actions, in thoughts and everything else. The third most important thing would probably be the knowing that you have made the right decisions, after making them, but of course this is hard to reach, yet a (hu-)man with common sense will see no obstacle in this. A big part in the ego-game is the feeling that you have done the right thing... As a slave of your ego you would seldomly experience that, yet some egos really think they do the right things, but in reality their ignorance towards just the same is unbelievable... literally...




peace. :weedman:
