Q.20

Your Ego’s job as ‘Custodian of your Individuality’ is to ensure your survival. (A2)

Therefore, it springs to your defense and you feel that opposition in any form, is intolerable and not to be borne. (A2) 

As a result, you find your minds and emotions becoming agitated, resentful and heated, and you want to hit back, to make the opposition go away, whether it is justified or not. (A2)

This is something that people must understand about the Ego – it is absolutely lacking in insight, objectivity or spontaneous sense of justice. (A2)

When you are controlled by the Ego Impulses, the consciousness vibrations you are now emitting are so off balance, so devoid of good sense, that they adversely affect the people around you and create consciousness blueprints of so much disharmony that they begin to affect your future experiences, activities and situations. (A2)

The Ego Impulses impel you to grasp those possessions which you believe will make you more comfortable or happy, and to push away, defend yourself, physically if necessary, from those elements and things which make you uncomfortable or are perceived to be dangerous to your life and wellbeing. (A12)

The EGO sorely limits the breadth of your human perceptions and vision, since it forces your consciousness to focus exclusively on your own happiness and survival. (A12)​

You have to understand that your ego must, (of necessity to enable you to survive), make you believe you are of value to yourself and other people. (L8)
