In order to truly understand what drives our unconscious behaviour we have to understand the core fears of the ego. If we don’t, we are doomed to repeat behaviour that we may even realize is unwholesome as we are impacted by the invisible hand of these forces.
In today’s talk based on the section of their book Wasteland to Pureland entitled “The Pearl Without Price”, Doug Duncan and Catherine Pawasarat explain the 4 Deep Ego Fears and why they hold so much power over us.
You can learn more about the 4 Deep Ego Fears and other topics by checking out Doug and Catherine’s bestselling book, Wasteland to Pureland: Reflections on the Path to Awakening.
