Today: Freeing ourselves of ego is the way to liberation – from the I Ching

Drop the ego.  It is what separates us from everything.  Freeing ourselves of ego is the way to liberation.  Give and forgive.
Doing this gives us the strength and creative resources to accomplish anything.  Nothing is denied you on the righteous path.

Read the text from Richard Wilhelm's translation of the I Ching
“…but only a man who is himself free of all selfish ulterior considerations, and who perseveres in justice and steadfastness, is capable of so dissolving the hardness of egotism.
Under certain circumstances, a man’s work may become so difficult that he can no longer think of himself. He must set aside all personal desires and disperse whatever the self gathers about it to serve as a barrier against others. Only on the basis of great renunciation can he obtain the strength for great achievements. By setting his goal in a great task outside himself, he can attain this standpoint.
When an individual draws this oracle, it means that success will come to him from the primal depths of the universe and that everything depends upon his seeking his happiness and that of others in one way only, that is, by perseverance in what is right.   “
