Trapped! In The Best Part of Ourselves
 
Are you driven to greatness, but seem to stall just as you begin to make progress? Why does it seem impossible to maintain consistency? One reason is that you may be unknowingly trapped in the best part of yourself. To determine if this might be the case, let’s start by taking the self apart.

The following three distinctions delve deeply into psychological structures. If this sounds a little ‘unspiritual’, note that cognition (thinking) and co-gnosis (knowledge of spiritual truth) are two sides of the same coin and therefore are inseparable aspects of awakening our deepest potential. It is true that you are not your thoughts, but you can’t fully conceptualize this without clarity of cognition! It is in the conscious harmony of these two sides that you can find accuracy.
 

Creating the conditions for freedom begins by distinguishing the Freudian Ego (the self-organizing principle of the psyche) from the healthy ego-mind (which gives us the capacity for individuality) from the unhealthy ego-mind (which is motivated by culturally conditioned fears and desires). The unhealthy ego-mind is also the part of us that vehemently protects the cherished beliefs and opinions of the culturally-created-self or personal ‘me’.
