pain is due to ego

I N T R O D U C T I O N

You undergo suffering in many situations, maybe when you fall ill, when your neighbor gets a new car, when your loved one leaves you, when your boss fires you, or when you lose some wealth. Suppose you decided to welcome these situations just as they are without anger or resentment. Would you still suffer as much? No! But you don't manage situations that way. When your boss yells at you, you feel pain.

The pain could have been either because he scolded you in front of everyone, because you feel bad for having fallen short of your boss's expectations at work, or because you feel you didn't deserve the scolding.

Like darkness, pain, whether it is physical, mental, or emotional, has only a negative existence . Darkness exists only in the absence of light. As such, it has no positive existence of its own. In the same way, pain exists only in the absence of awareness. Just as darkness disappears automatically when light is brought into a room, pain dissolves automatically when the energy of your awareness is focused on it.

Sit by yourself and think honestly about what the reason is. If the pain is due to him scolding you in front of everybody, then the pain is actually a hurt to your ego. Ask yourself, 'So what if everybody was watching? Why have I invested so much in what others think of me? Why can't I have my own gauge to measure myself? 'Ask yourself these questions. You will realize your investment in other's opinions of you is not worth it. Your pain will disappear!

If you experience pain because you did not perform to the best of your ability, become intensely aware of that. That awareness is enough to overcome the pain. Then you will use only the learning from the incident, you will drop the 'feeling bad' part.

Goal :

To cause the child to take individual responsibility to separate Ego from Pain
