21. At what point does the Ego take over control in a person?
The EGO takes over control of your developing foetus from the time of the union of the semen and ovum. (L6)
The new little being became an ‘I’ immediately, feeling satisfaction and dissatisfaction in the womb depending on its sense of comfort or discomfort and what was happening to mother. (L6)
When you were born, your instincts of survival imprinted with the deep primeval knowledge of ‘created beingness’ buried in each living cell of your body, prompted you to breathe, and become aware of an emotional emptiness and deprivation at your separation from the comfort of the confining womb, which was then felt as a physical emptiness and need for physical nourishment. (L6)
Thus was your ego cry born. (L6)
When you cried you were given nourishment by mother which was deeply satisfying ⎯ both physically and emotionally. When your needs were fully met, you could slip back into a state of equilibrium within sleep. (L6)
When you woke from your equilibrium, you felt a sense of insecurity (the equilibrium now divided into mental and emotional awareness), you remembered that mother and milk created a fulfilment of needy insecurity, and so again, you cried. Your needs were fulfilled. (L6)
So did your ego-drive develop. (L6)
Sometimes, you cried and it was humanly decreed that it was not yet feeding time and you were left to cry for a while. This built up an awareness that needs were not always satisfied immediately and you would have to adapt.
You either chose anger and cried more vigorously – or lapsed into acceptance. Your choice of reaction depended on the characteristics of ‘ego-drive’ imprinted in your consciousness at birth. (L6)
Neither forms of ego-drive were to be condemned or judged. They were the natural result of the Creative Factor of Ego which ensures INDIVIDUALITY. (L6)
As the baby develops, the ego begins to make itself felt. It is the foundation of your human selfhood which gives you individuality. It is the energy of your human consciousness. (L7)
It makes you distinct and unique from everyone else. (L7)
In order to preserve your individuality, the ego must protect you from outside attack of any kind and it must give you what you need to help you prosper, flourish, grow and be happy. (L7)
This is Divinely ordained and not to be treated with contempt. The ego constitutes an ‘all-important’ and very necessary nucleus of consciousness of creation, development and growth. (L7)
