So this episode is very important to me, & is literally needed in order to move forward with our journey! Deep self examination, aka self reflection, is going to produce our first REAL reality check, & with this comes discovery of not only the good within, but also all the things we have been running from! The aim is to dig and pull out who we THINK we are and know (killing our EGO) in other words, & detaching our false sense of identity from realities influences such as; materialistic possessions, EGO, greed, selfishness, pride, jealousy, etc..... & once we can overcome this hurdle, & learn to put EGO In the backseat, we then start to come into our spiritual self, & our higher self leads the way! So, this examination of self helps us 1. Understand that we really don't know Jack S***, 2. Ego needs to be put behind us to break the connection between us (real self) & false self of identity (material possessions, Ego, pride, manipulation, etc) all of which reality has turned us to! So no matter WHAT, don't feel like you have to start over, or as if you have been doing all of this wrong because this self exam will teach you how to turn all the things that makes false sense of your identity, & use it to set yourself free from suffering, & lingering pain, in which you then can help set other free from their suffering! Hope you enjoy, & LOVE & LIGHT TO ALL!!
