Sweet Surrender: The Role Ego Plays in Spiritually Evolving Past Patterns of Addiction with Dr. Linville Meadows
Spiritual Teacher Eckhart Tolle tells us:
“Ego is presented as an accumulation of thoughts and emotions, continuously identified with, creating the idea and feeling of being a separate entity from one's self.”
We learn only by disidentifying one's consciousness from it can one truly be free from suffering.
Psychologist and author Dr. Nicole LePerla shares this: “The Suffering within our world comes from the human egos misguided attempts to keep us safe. It’s always creating stories.”
When we stop to reconsider the words of both Tolle and LePerla, one has to ask- are these stories truly serving me and feeding my spiritual evolution, or are they leading to a destruction of self?
-The Me that is within.
Our guest today, Dr. Linville Meadows knows the often devastating effect of allowing our egos to step into the driver seat.
