It is in our culture and ideas in Western medicine that if something is a problem, if you can, you can cut it out. This thinking is also applied to many areas of our lives. For instance, think about ego. It is common to think that ego comes between yourself and God and as such it too, needs to be removed.
If ego is a problem, it is because an aspect of ourselves is out of alignment just like the vertebrae in the spine can become stuck and misaligned. When a vertebrae is stuck, the resultant lack of motion, pain and stiffness make it known immediately. The same is true of ego.
When your ego is aligned, it is transparent and functioning flawlessly. We do not come with spare parts. Ego is neccessary and is the tool of creation in this world.
Who is it that climbs the mountain of great spiritual heights, if it isn’t you?
