Footprints in the Windsm # 1660–The uselessness of ego

Footprints in the Windsm # 1660

One thing I am noticing as I grow into an elder is how much ego drives our society—and how useless that is long term. Everywhere it’s thee against me, how much can I get? This dries up the love of humanity, the love of particular living beings. Isn’t—shouldn’t—this be the ground of all we are and do? Do we have heart for others as well as grabbing for me?

the mind evolved more than one

The mind evolved from seeing and reacting to seeing and seeing we were seeing: reflecting on our very thinking. We have started, of course, on the next progressing: reflecting on our reflecting on our reflecting. Or maybe something utterly beyond that. Only now it’s going to take more than one of us.
