Ego is the source of all things negative.  Ego is the concept of self.  Greed.

So you're saying that "concept of self" is negative? That explains your severe lack of self awareness.

BAM!

But seriously, you left me open for that one.

My awareness about the universe is lacking?  Yet my awareness increases everyday.

They just covered this in parks and recreation. (TV show)  Its funny because this (main) guy scams the people who think its the end of the world into buying his wooden handcarved flutes.  They all write him checks, then of course, the world doesn't end and he sold 20 in one day--lol.

I think biz doing "end of the world" specials would be cool.  I remember a lot of funny stuff on fb the day that we were supposed to have the rapture 1.5-2 years ago.

Greed is good! Like my avatar?

If 'ego' is the concept of self, that is, to an extent, a 'source' of negativity, but it's debated as to whether or not the self creates negativity, merely experiences it from an external object, or can even be perceived as 'willed' negativity-- or perhaps deterministic 'negativity' that, if it is inevitable, cannot be of much of a 'negativity' in-itself, for why moralize destined phenomenons at all?

What I'm really saying here is this: You cannot appear very philosophical when your 'truths' are merely vague cliches-- so presumptuous and broad that your thoughts all amount to superficiality.

Will any bookies accept bets on this issue? I'm gonna put all my money on the world not ending...

Why not bet with Mr.Dank? He's very sure of himself. Though I doubt he'll put his money where his mouth is; he's extremely unstable and misguided.

What do you not understand?  When you dream, everything is one, together, it's your consciousness.  Life is divided, we function as humans with our ego.  Ego is what makes us human, it's doubt, it's reason, it's fear.  It's everything but love.

You can't hate and love at the same time.

False.

I love my car because it rewards me with freedom.
I hate my car because it's a massive drain on money.

So which is it, do you hate your car or love it?  You cannot be happy and sad at the same time.  You cannot be greedy and sharing at the same time.  It's not about why you feel a certain way, it's about which way you feel.

Both. I love and hate my car at same time. Your statement is false.

There is nothing without the 'ego'; it is impossible to conceptualize anything without the ego as any attempt to do so would be only vanity. Using the ego to judge the ego-- not a disinterested nor objective judgement/perspective whatsoever

For instance; you slander the ego for whatever reason, but it is only the ego that has the capacity to make such value-judgements.

From Nietzsche:

In the first place a being capable of absolutely unegoistic conduct is as fabulous as the phoenix. Such a being is not even thinkable for the very reason that the whole notion of "unegoistic conduct," when closely examined, vanishes into air. Never yet has a man done anything solely for others and entirely without reference to a personal motive; indeed how could he possibly do anything that had no reference to himself, that is without inward compulsion (which must always have its basis in a personal need)? How could the ego act without ego?
