Book excerpt: Taming the ego, the false self, is an essential part of your journey toward spiritual awakening, self-realisation, and finding your unique purpose in life. It provides your soul, the true self, the opportunity to shine light and love into the world. The soul thrives on love, peace, and cooperationa recipe the world is in desperate need of right now. It knows no fear, only unconditional love. The ego is judgemental, competitive, jealous, and greedy. It seeks power, control, and promotes a fearful existence. Love is not in the lexicon of the ego. Tame the Ego before it Tames the Soul provides you with the necessary tools required to tame the ego. By taming the ego, we liberate the soul. Youre truly free when your soul breaks through the supremacy of the ego. When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you. The world needs your souls voice and wisdom more than ever before. Your life is precious, all life is precious.
