A Brief History of Ego Development - 03.11.10

Student Question: I was wondering how the ego evolved in the very beginning: so from the first person who had an ego.

“Humans didn’t have egos at first. It was a later cultural development,” reveals Shunyamurti, the director of the Sat Yoga Institute in Costa Rica. Although it would take an entire lecture or even seminar to understand this, Shunyamurti briefly details the entropy process that affects the human spirit in which human consciousness becomes identified with an ego and a body image, and the potential return to our previous spiritual stature. Recorded on the evening of Thursday, March 11, 2010.
