Quote:Ego is a term that plays a fundamental role in the study of “I” in our daily, individual existences. For countless ages humanity has pondered this concept, struggled with this concept, and even warred over this concept. For a word that is so deeply indoctrinated in our lives, ego conjures up many different feelings and thoughts in many different people. Let us closely examine the ego and its impact on our universe in an attempt to gain a clearer understanding of its meaning and purpose.

Quote:Fools do not strive for self-discovery because they are too self-centered and believe that they have all the answers. The wise do not strive for self-discovery because they already have it. It’s only the people in between –the majority– that are vulnerable and lost, drowning in the daunting eternity of it all. Meditating in solitude brings forth the gift of feeling lost. It is a gift because only with it can we ascend to a state of being “found,” to becoming, once again, enchanted.
