Komal Kaur talks about “Shredding my ego (and growing intuition)” in this episode of Intuitive Leadership Mastery with host Michaela Light.
"to me, ego basically is that part of myself that, um, I identify with that I give a label to that is, um, but I formed the image of who I am. So you know, my name. For example, I have quite an attachment to my name cause I love my name. Um, you know how I look, the image, right? Um, right. That's thoughts. The emotions that come up in my mind, how I feel, my body, what comes up in my body. All of these, all these aspects of myself which are outside is what I consider my ego, what I identify with, what I'm attached to and what I feel separates me from someone else. You know, what makes me- me and what makes you you, you know? And that is my ego. That's what ego means to me."
Episode Highlights
- Her FB post
- I set an intention for 2020 last week, to remove my attachment to the 'I', my ego self that craves and identifies with labels.
- I had to shed a lot of ego in 2019, and release so much attachment to who I thought I was. It's such a painful process... I was holding on so strongly to words and ideas that I used to define myself. Because I needed to find my place in the world.
- But how can I possibly sum the vastness of this existence and experience into a mere few words, words that are limited by the confines of language.
- And as we come to the close of the year, I find myself with even more being stripped away. Things I hold on to tightly, and which define my self worth by my ability to achieve them.
- The more I learn, the less I know. I see the lessons and I hear you loud and clear, God.
- 2020, I welcome you with humility.
