Ego traps

Zenful spirit has yet another slant on this issue -

We all want to be happy. It’s human nature. But there’s another part of human nature – the ego – that constantly sabotages our happiness at every turn.

If we let it.

In order to be happy, we have to learn how the ego operates. We need to identify those destructive thought patterns that keep popping up, poisoning our lives with needless misery and stress.

In this article I’m going to point out some of the ego’s most common (and cunning) thought traps, so that you can become aware of them in your own life, in your own mind.

Becoming aware is the first step to freedom.

Once you can spot the ego’s tricks, you can learn to avoid them. Instead of falling into the trap, and an emotional downward spiral, you can shift your focus, and direct your thoughts in a healthy and positive way.

10 Ego Traps to Avoid If You Want To Be Happy | Zenful Spirit

Smiling is charity without giving money
As always I was in doubt as to where to post this ...

These traps are something I need to be very mindful of.

The ego is very cunning and like to hijack my practice and feel all "superior" to people who don't appear to be very spiritual!

Here's the full list -

Trap while despising others
When we reject the evidence and proof
But if he is confident of himself and accepts his defeat with evidence and proof, he will be rid of ego
ego is a strange feeling of greatness, perfection and external synthesis of a fake character

Try - ego traps messiah complex -

Controller Programs is a term used to describe multiple layers of Victimizer Mind Control that is used psychologically and emotionally to program humanity to think in polarizing thoughts of division, violence and hatred in order to believe in the fear based control systems that shape the death culture. The death culture is backed by the Archontic Deception Strategies used by the NAA forces to divide and conquer humanity. The enforcement of these Controller Programs is accomplished by forcing false egoic identities and related thought patterns into the minds of the people that are called Victimizer Archetypes. When we understand these Victimizer Archetypes are being targeted into the collective consciousness of the human race, we can learn how they work to drain our energy and feed Consumptive Modeling, and Parasitism. Thus, we can stop playing into these harmful archetypes, as well as feeding into the dramas they generate, by not letting other people project these archetypes onto us. Essentially, we refuse to take the bait of emotional manipulation in those attempting to draw us into playing out these destructive archetypes, many times for the purpose of dividing and polarizing issues into more destructive conflicts that exist between groups of people. Through the intentional Psycho-Spiritual Warfare made against the minds of the human population, the masses are made pliable and subservient to follow the NAA masking themselves as the False King of Tyranny archetype. This is in the attempt to find absolute rule and control by the Power Elite, by manipulating the False Parent archetypes to gain a False Father authority over the masses.

I notice they all mention judging others who don't do the good thing mentioned.

In the case of watching movies or shows or reading fiction having violence and supremely evil characters and even horribly bad attitudes: I don't like these things because I don't like the ideas and images bouncing around in my brain. I don't judge others who do these things, but I assume that the various ideas and images are bouncing around in their brains.

Yet I am a fan of the band Jefferson Airplane (among others) and I encounter their lifestyles and ideas that I don't approve of; and I am OK with this stuff bouncing around in my brain. Because I am a fan. I can overlook it.

Thanks for the feed-back.

I no longer watch violent movies or telly at all. I find it most uncomfortable.

I feel deep compassion 4 all those whose egos cause them to suffer because I know just how distressing that can be. It takes an enormous ego to be angry at the entire human race!

Wishing you all the best!
