Anonymity and the Ego



Uploaded by: Negationism
Video Description:
These teachings are presented anonymously to avoid the interference of ego. Ego is our concept of self, which we define as "who we are." The concept of self is a natural result of human evolution, but it is not always useful. In the context of spiritual teachings, ego can obscure the message.
When we see and hear other people, we make judgments about them based on our own self-image. These judgments are generally useful in daily life. However, they can interfere with our ability to accept spiritual teachings, because we tend to confuse the message with the messenger.
In negationism and the traditions it is derived from, the messenger is not important. Skillful teachers will minimize opportunities for ego dynamics to occur between the messenger and his or her audience. The electronic age creates an opportunity to do this effectively.
We do not offer commercial products or services. We have no interest in encouraging viewers to continue engaging with us indefinitely. We are not gurus, swamis, coaches, or masters. We are simply guides, pointing you toward a direct experience of what you already are.
Our identity is not important. Identification with any concept, including the concept of self, is what we must negate and neutralize in order to free the mind from its own confusion. We are what you are. You are what we are. We are all anonymous in the eyes of Nature.
