If the growth of the human ego is a force of nature, shouldn’t we just go with it to wherever it takes us? Perhaps there’s a way we can channel our ego in more positive directions? What do you think?

      Our natural egoistic drive often gravitates us towards self-interest, leading us to seek pleasure solely for ourselves which can harm others and the world we live in, in our selfish pursuit. Therefore just going with it, our ego can lead us astray driven by self-serving motives. We can transcend our current state of existence and attain a harmonious balance between egoism and altruism, by learning to harness our ego for the greater good.  We can uplift not only ourselves but also humanity as a whole, recognizing the interconnection that binds us all. The teachings of Kabbalah illuminates this spiritual path, guiding us on how we can direct our ego towards selfless pursuits, thereby enhancing our society and deepening our connection with the Creator.

      We need to learn how we can use our ego to develop ourselves on the spiritual path of light. There is only good, what exists and everything what happens to us we can and should use it for our growth.

      Turn off the TV and keep it off and allow nature to guide you. I think people are too dependant on what to think and not connect with the earth. I think this will help.

      I think that Nature gave us the ego so that we can use it positively in all states of life.

      Nature will lead the ego to a good state at the end, but by great suffering and at its time.
