Ego wants to keep you separate. Like a spoiled child that grabs its toys, hugs them to itself, and cries, “Mine, mine, mine,” ego is actually quite frightened. Someone needs to let ego know he is needed. Someone needs to let her know she is loved. Some One is all that exists, and it is the fracturing of that One into shards of a mirror that creates ego in the first place. Only when ego can see in the other pieces reflections of ItSelf can healing begin to take place and “mine, mine, mine” becomes, “Oh, my, I was wrong! I am a part of, not apart from!” Whilst in the dream, you will always know ego, but it need not live in fear.
You are so very loved.

I giggle with amazement how Sanaya plays with words. Thank you so very much. ??
Thank you for this Suzanne, it is so completely relevant, I was quite blown away by your online course this weekend, and that takes some doing for a ‘conventionally’ trained psychologist :). Thank you so very much. Namaste
There’s a part of me that feels grateful for “Ego”. Yet, I have been given a contrasting view that it is a “usurper” and has taken over mind!
This view ,in this Daily Way , seems to be more in synch with the part of me that is grateful.
I’m feeling somewhat perplexed, now.
This is what I see….At a time when I was unclear of myself and trying to individuate, I suspect ego stepped up to “assist” . Perhaps, relinquishing too much authority to ego gave it a more power filled stance. …or I became too dependent on it. Probably both apply here.
Nevertheless, it seems an inequity resulted.
This then seems to indicate there is a need to find a balance with my Self and my Ego (self).
Is this what this message is all about?
How then, can this balance be achieved?
To Be or not to be……?
