We are not this Body

[Bill Wiltrack]

Have you dropped your ego? Your attachment to it?

If you had an ego drop, what lead you to that state & is it worth it?

[sthitapragya]

Yes, the soul is a part of God and it is more powerful than our ego, our mind, infinitely more powerful.

Ego cannot take over the command of the soul because the soul is God and all-powerful. However, why this happens is because this world – a manifestation of God, is a drama that he has created; a drama for all his manifestations, where one ultimately has to aspire to and long to realize God.

If God had not created this world, then the soul would never have had to leave and would have been part of God and realized God. So why did God create such a world that the soul would lose sight of God and would have to struggle to realize God? What does God get out of this?

Unfortunately, we are all so caught up in this drama, so involved with the world, it’s physical attractions, the distractions of the mind, that very few of us have the ability to realize God or even to want to realize God.

Who do you mean by we? The soul or the body?

This is because of our ego. The ego in itself is also God’s creation. Everything is God’s creation. It is for us to understand that once we realize that we are not the ego, but a part of God, then everything drops, and in a moment the all-powerful soul within takes command; the ego, the mind, the body drop in a moment with God realization.

Here again when you say we and us, you seem to mean the soul. But if the soul is more powerful than the ego, then how does the ego prevail over the soul and make it forget God? Should it not be the other way that the soul makes the ego see and realize God?
