Not who we really are, a social mask, a role we are playing.
The need for approval, the need to control things and the need for external power.
Fear based.

Ego is legion, demons inside us, an army of demons triying to use you and your energy to survive.

Ego divides in seven heads, wich explains the seven demons Crist expeled from Mary Magdalene, or the seven demonds Crist expeled from the wild man and threw them to the pigs.
Its heads are the famous seven sins from christianity:
Lust:
Avarice:
Pride:
Rage:
Glutony:
Jellousy:
Lazyness:

As sons of god we have an escence of our father inside, wich we have to find and encarnate. To do it we must observe ourselves and know ourself and eliminate every thoughts and actions coming from the ego. That reminds me what says at the Temple of Delphos (or something like that) "Know yourself, and you will have knolegde of god and the whole universe".

We are asleep, we live like machines, CONTROLED. People live and die and at the end they didnt even know the purpose of their existence. We must wake up and think for ourselves, not what the ego tells us to do. Eliminate what controls you and find out who you really are, no matter what religion you practice or no.

97% of the thing that comes across our minds is not us, its ego. We must awake our consciousness and only live the PRESENT wich is the only real thing, the past passed and the future is uncertain.
One example of each head, however millions of examples exist.

Lust:
Why do we have to watch every good looking girl/guy with the intentions of violating her/him? it even happens when we have a girlfriend/ boyfriend.

Avarice:
Why do you want so much when you can survive with only the necesary? Anything you have stays in the grave in the day of your death... remember that.

Pride:
Who does that guy think i am? I will kill him. I am the best around here i can do whatever i want, nobody can beat me!.

Rage:
Screaming at wifes in front of kids, killing people for nothing, like recently in my country a guy stabed another guy for a passager, when the ride only costs around 1 dollar.

Glutony:
Eating more than you are supposed to, taking more than you need (anything, not just food).

Jelousy:
Girls keep criticizing each other just by watching their clothes, live your life let other live theirs. People wanting the partner of their neighbors, or the car, etc.

Lazyness:
I gotta wake up to go to work, while ego in your head telling you: nah sleep a bit more its nothing, you still have time. Having to do a school job and waiting for the last moment to do it.

the “I” or self of any person; a person as thinking, feeling, and willing, and distinguishing itself from the selves of others and from objects of its thought.
I have a really big ego.

after the ID is formed in the psyche the Ego comes afterwards. it turns the primary process thinking into secondary process thinking so we use aceptable behavior to get what we want. the ego although responsible for are conscious descions is mainly in the preconconscious where it meshes and overlaps with the ID. the reason it is mainly in the preconscious is so that defense mechnism can block off unexceptable thoughts that are hurtfull or events that happen in the outside world that are huretfull to the human psyche when this happens the egos defense mechnism become active and thrust those harfull things into the abys of the unconscious.although defense mechnism deal with problems in the outside world they are not conscious to us.
the ego is what makes us human thus abortian is the killing of something unhuman and evil since it is nothing more then a ID the unborn has no conscious neither do babys just born

In Psychology, it is the balancing diplomat which regulates the instinctual desires of the Id and the narcissistic satisfaction of the superego. Kind of like what America's president does to appease democrats and republicans.
Jacques' Id had desired to rape the petite Christian girl and dump her, his ego wanted to marry her, have kids with her and then divorce her, and lastly, his superego wanted to marry her, have kids with her, and make her his cooking sex slave.

^Revolting, perhaps, but also inherent, and somewhat eternal.

Refer to Beyonce's song, "Ego".

Greek word means "Ι" but in english comes from the greek word "egoism". "Egoism" sounds negative.
