Ram Dass Ego Quotations

A Oneness of all. An evolution in consciousness of us all that isn't about the egos.

The Ego ages... the Soul evolves... and to the Awareness, nothing happened!

One of the ego's favorite paths of resistance is to fill you with doubt.

It's very different because the Indians live as if they are their souls and Americans live as if they are their egos.

The ego is frightened by death, because ego is part of the incarnation and ends with it. That is why we learn to identify with our soul, as the soul continues after death. For the soul, death is just another moment.

The ego is a tool. You don't separate it. It's a tool for the spirit.

We've gotten lost in our Ego and have forgotten that our Soul's only motive is to merge with the Beloved.

Most of us are convinced that we are our egos, which is who we think we are. The ego is part of our incarnation. It dies with the body, which is why we are so afraid of death. Death scares the hell out of who you think you are, especially if you think you are this body.

The Ego is an exquisite instrument. Enjoy it, use it--just don't get lost in it.

Behind everyone's learned behaviors and odd eccentricities lurks a soul, ready to make contact if only coaxed out through a crack in the ego.

The point isn't to deny our Egos, but to extricate ourselves from our exclusive preoccupation with them.

At the moment when there's nothing more to lose, the Ego breaks open - and then we see who we are behind who we thought we were.

When we practice dying, we are learning to identify less with Ego and more with Soul

Souls love. That’s what souls do. Egos don’t, but souls do. Become a soul, look around, and you’ll be amazed-all the beings around you are souls. Be one, see one.

Fear of death only comes through the brittleness of the ego.

Accidents are just from where you're looking; to the ego, it looks like it's miracles and accidents.
