Preparing for the ego. Once you are getting good at this ego control you see patterns arise. Your “he is a crazy driver judge ego” won’t arise in your living room but rather when you are driving. Your “fair and balanced” ego is only going to arise when you are watching Fox news or similar right wing media. Try to see where you are and predict what ego will arise and head it off at the passe. This way previously challenging situations become easy transmute to more enlightened states.

Things have been going well for me in terms of my ego.  In fact I had been proactive by praying for success in that regard.  Yesterday, however, I had the worst day.  I had several terrible blows to my ego and many smaller ones.  My practices were very helpful in controlling their effect on me but I couldn’t understand why God would challenge me so much.  I even prayed for an answer to that question.  I got my reply in terms of recollection of something I read from Gary Renard.  The universe will give you what you need to take the next step.  This terrible day was in fact a compliment that I am ready now to take a big step towards reaching salvation.  As Andre 3000 says in Revolver, “Embrace the pain.”  I other words the pain you feel is the ego and gratitude towards the pain, embracing of the pain is what is required at that moment.  I have come a long way from my biggest ego assault, my marriage.
