I love my ego

There is a lot of talk in spiritual and new age circles about how the ego is bad and needs to be transcended or got rid of. I disagree with this. I love my ego. For me ego is part of god. It needs to be celebrated and appreciated.

My ego consiousness and my god consciousness are One.

Ego is great, for those who can handle it. Most can't.

I don’t think that ego itself is a problem, cos after all we gotta have some sense of self to be able to live in this life. The problem is when you have an over inflated ego or a fragile ego is where the problems seem to stem from. Just a thought?

It seems to me that there is a negative ego that needs to be transcended and a positive ego that needs to be cultivated and celebrated. The negative ego is what I call the Self Hater; that part of us that maybe believes it is unworthy, separate and unlovable. We need to love the self hater until it is transformed into a Self Lover. The positive ego on the other hand is at one with god, the universe and all of creation. It is the happy self; that part that is in touch with freedom and abundance, that part that would never harm another being.

If we didn't have an ego we would be in spirit as our authentic self.

I imagine your ego is lost while in spirit. It is a defense mechanism whilst incarnated.
When you pass, it is pure love, then just awareness.
