摘录A New Earth
Chapter 2 --Ego: The Current State of Humanity

"Life isn't as serious as my mind makes it out to be." --pg33

Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at this moment. --pg41

The ego isn't wrong, it's just unconscious. When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it. Don't take the ego too seriously. When you detect egoic behavior in yourself, smile. At times you may even laugh. How could humanity have been taken in by this for so long? Above all, know that the ego isn't personal. It isn't who you are. If you consider the ego to be your personal problem, that's just more ego. --pg42

Making yourself right and others wrong is one of the principal egoic mind patterns, one of the main forms of unconciousness. --pg44

The ego tends to equate having with Being: I have, therefore I am. And the more I have, the more I am. The ego lives through comparison. --pg45

The ego wants to want more than it wants to have. And so the shallow satisfaction of having is always replaced by more wanting.--pg 46
