Spiritual and Ego Battle

Only one will survive

Ego

The process of learning who you truly are can be very difficult. You may think you are a good person until your deeds are judged and everything is thrown back to you. Unknowingly we as humans like to believe we are the best person ever and our guilt and shame hides itself. We can become distracted from our highest calling by feeding the ego. Ego becomes challenged when your spirit is rising and wanting you to become the authentic self you are meant to be. Spiritual warfare is a mental, soul, and physical battle, an emotional upheaval of past traumas that are coming to the surface it will make you feel unstable and unsafe. The triggers are for you to see the truth of who you are, and deal with the insecurities that have been built up. Of course the ego wants to push the work aside and pretend that everything is ok. If you don’t deal with the issues of self God, will make you by stripping everything away from you until you obey.

If so much is taken without understanding there will be a lot of giving until one understands the truth of giving and receiving. Children who grow up materially fulfilled and not emotionally fulfilled will begin to have an overactive ego and believe that they are who the ego wants them to be. Once the spirit awakens the battle begins everything becomes confusing, what is true and what is false? You will begin to question everything and everyone. Perception begins to change and many challenges become the war field. The perception of yourself changes as you begin to see the faults within yourself and everything becomes altered. When everything falls apart the many layers of the ego will try to stay but you must fight to let it go.

Seeing the true me

The ego gets boosted as a child if parents just give children materials and not fill their emotions the child will actually become egotistical, and the pattern will continue. Spiritual balance is what we all need to be true to ourselves and work on the inner issues we have. The main reason the ego drive is because those around them become enablers because of their egos, for example if you have a child failing in school and you don’t push them you decide to do the work yourself because your ego doesn’t want to have the label of a failing child. The reality is the child has already failed but the ego doesn’t want to accept it so the illusion begins. The relationships that are built on faulty foundations will eventually fall and can be built again if the ego is completely gone. The spirit will begin to grow because instead of drying each other up we feel each other’s soul.

In the battle of ego and spirit the ego must go completely to be who you are meant to be. The journey of life and what really matters is a roller coaster and full of changes everything happens for a reason and the main goal is for the world to become whole and live in peace. The images that are presented to us as young children creates our programming inside so we must be careful of which program we begin to feed, the ego or true self. The journey will have mistakes, spiritual errors, and spiritual emergencies but you must continue learning and growing.
