The Spiritual Ego Trap 99% of People Fall Into - Alan Watts

Описание: Spiritual growth is not superiority.
Awareness is not identity.
Waking up is not becoming someone special.
Enlightenment is not a costume the ego wears.
“The ego loves enlightenment as long as it stays in control.”

This video gently points toward one of the most overlooked illusions on the spiritual path, the moment the ego disguises itself as awakening. In a calm and grounded way, this reflection invites you to notice how the desire to be spiritual can quietly replace simple presence. You will explore how real clarity does not inflate the self but softens it, bringing the nervous system back into ease and coherence. Rather than striving for higher states, this talk returns you to what is already here, the silent awareness beneath effort, belief, and performance. It is an invitation to rest in alignment instead of chasing an image of awakening.

This video explores:
✨ How the spiritual ego quietly forms
✨ Why seeking awakening can strengthen identity
✨ The difference between awareness and self image
✨ How language creates subtle separation
✨ Letting go of spiritual comparison
✨ Returning to direct experience
✨ Ego as a function not an enemy
✨ Why humility feels like freedom
✨ Awareness without labels
✨ Surrender as intelligence
✨ Living from intuition not performance

This closing reflection is a gentle reminder:
Let go of becoming
Let go of proving
Let go of arriving
Return to being

This message is designed to help you:
• Notice subtle ego patterns
• Calm the nervous system
• Release spiritual pressure
• Reconnect with simple presence
• Trust intuitive awareness
• Move from effort into flow

Take a quiet moment after listening. Let the ideas settle without trying to use them. What remains is already enough.
