How Do Thoughts Create The Ego? | EASTERN PHILOSOPHY
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ต.ค. 2024
- In this episode of Enlightenment Today, I will explain how thoughts create the ego and the nature of thoughts. Thoughts and the process of thinking has been an area the East has focused on for thousands of years. In the modern world, we are under the impression that thoughts are linked in a series creating this continuity of the person we think we are. What causes this linkage? Is it a natural function of the mind or just a habit we are caught in? The great traditions of the East explain why thoughts themselves are not linked and this wisdom leads to the nature of mind itself and its true essence and function. Get ready to dive deep.

Your work is legendary 🙏🏽🖖🏽🤛🏽
I appreciate the gratitude Jason. Best to you my friend.
This was probably the best explanation of the ego I've ever heard. Thank you! 😁
Agree 100% That was amazing, elegantly simple, and straightforward.
Imagine spiritual knowledge channel having 50 million subscribers, that would be awesome.
Be one with life by staying with the divine beauty of existence. To exerience all of existence fully and totally in all of its forms is the meaning of life confirmed by the bliss and extacy that is present when u do so.
Awesome explanations. Keep it up!
Mindless meditation is a useful tool to help us sometimes. Not recommended when driving, working , or any other task requiring sequential thought patterns.
Well said Geoff. Thank you my friend.
Very helpful. I appreciate your balance of academic knowledge and practical tools in approaching spiritual matters, thank you!🕉☯️☮
I'm glad you appreciate my work my friend. I try to find the right balance so that people can understand Eastern thought more deeply, but also remain grounded as well. Your name is the best!
your upbringing and your culture is the form your soul lands in
Thoughts can get out of control, similar to riding a spooked runaway horse. Thanks so much for your videos. I've been studying Taoisim for a few years now, but it's a continuing education that requires reminders of staying on the path. I have learned a lot from your videos. I feel this learning process is going to be life long, but it's worth it.
Loving your insightful videos on my self realization journey.. Moving out of our true self leads to suffering.. meditation is actually staying connected the source.. Our true nature of bliss..
Crystal clear explanation...
Another clear lesson. Thank you.
Thanks for elaborating, Jason. This touches on and clarifies quite alot of mindmatters and the invaluable Eastern perspective on it.
Appreciate it Dick. Thank you for watching brother.
Thank you so much brother. This video was so insightful and transforming. Thank you for sharing the true wisdom of the East. Wishing you and Gayoung nothing but the best and continued success in sharing the Highest knowledge.
Wow Jason thank you very well explained ….empty,spontaneous and free!
Such a powerful video. Thank you.
Thanks Jason, you explain it so concisely
That was helpful and so beautiful explained. Just great...
Really useful elucidation. Thank you 💥
thanks fellow being name Jason for all you share with us
I think this is the clearest explanation of the Ego I have ever heard.I am also a lapsed meditator of Soto Zen which has encouraged me to return to daily meditation.However where would embracing any suffering that came up within me fit in? And also the Bodisatva aspect I.E compassion..I think if I was lucky enough to be enlightenefd I would wish to return to help the others.You have explained lots of things so well that I ask these questions and also wouldn't we have accumulated conditioning etc from past lives? 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤
The ego is the primary thought from which springs forth the world of thoughts.
Love your Gayathri mantra shirt. ❤
THANKYOU for sharing 👣👍
Will you make a video on the great Alan Watts Jason?
Great to hear from you Noah. Funny you mentioned that, I have been thinking about that for a long time. But for whatever reason I haven't created it yet. I guess because there is so much to talk about when we talk about Alan. I'm not sure how a video could encapsulate the genius that he was. But I will try one day my friend.
Jason Gregory Make it a series, he deserves it!! 🙏🏻
@@JasonGregoryAuthor you can do just one, on Karma, Allan Watts has some good videos on it. It is so much misunderstood, this concept of karma, I think it will be very useful.
Thank you for keeping us safe from the subtle but dangerous traps of the spiritual materialism 💓💎🙏💫👌🌬
Ether hug 🤗
Great to hear from you my friend. I actually have a few videos on Karma. You can find them among my videos.
Wow! Speechless, thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you for watching, Michelle.
Yee! Another awesome video!
Thank you Mark. Hope you learned a lot from it.
Great video. It clarified some of my own insights through meditation. I wonder if there is a corruption (i.e., misunderstanding) of eastern thought when I hear the expression “don’t think, feel.” We seem to have an over emphasis on personal feelings as a valid reality over objective reasoning. My belief is that we need objective reasoning in the material “dualistic” world, but that the non-dwelling mind is for seeing beyond the material impermanent “reality.” I hope this makes sense.
That was amazing, thank you.
Hello
I understand that in situation like meditation thoughts arise from the mind
In a situation of thinking like working, are the thoughts arises the same way from the same source. And what part does the ego play in that situation
Thank you
Spoken words are sounds occasioned by the vibration of thoughts. Thoughts are vibrations sent forth by the ego or by the soul." Quote from Paramahansa Yogananda. Only enlightened saints are completely ego-less.

I can find no reference to 'unsupported thought' online. Thoughts anyone? Unsupported or not.
Look into Madhyamika and Yogacara schools, Tibetan and Zen Buddhism, the work of numerous teachers and scholars, such as Yamada Koun Roshi, Robert Aitken, David Loy, etc. All the information is there, but you have to read the actual texts and also learn from the differing schools directly. The terminology may differ, but they are referring to an unsupported thought if we are using English. Most of this deeper material won't be on websites. This is why we actually have to read the texts. I know people don't want to read anything lengthy, but the reward is rich. As for a great beginning place I would say start with Nagarjuna's teachings and then go from there. Thank you Net.
