Ego gives you the illusion that you act freely, but in reality you are captive to its desires.
There you have it, plain and simple.
Ego does such a good job in hiding all the Light, including your true self (your soul), that you have forgotten and lost touch with all the true desires that radiate from your innermost being.
Instead, you are governed and ruled by the whims of ego. You work around the clock to fulfil its desires, no matter how shallow or self-destructive those desires may be.
These egocentric impulses control us 99.999 percent of the time. And if you have a difficult time believing this to be true the curtain is doing its job extremely well.
As a result, with the Light hidden, with our souls concealed, we flounder around in a world of darkness - one so dense that we can't see the hidden cause of our problems.
Until now.
Clearly, ego is the foundation of all forms of envy. It compels you to convince others that you're right even when you are wrong.
Ego gives you the illusion that you act freely, but in reality you are captive to its desires.
