The biggest cause of turmoil and conflict in one’s life is executed by the human ego. The most unruly and destructive ego exists within every human soul. When the soul enters into a physical human body, the ego immediately compresses and then swells up. It is your higher self’s goal to ensure that it remains in check while living an Earthly life. The ego is what tests each soul along its journey. It is how one learns right from wrong. The experiences and challenges the soul has while living in this Earthly life school contribute to the soul’s growth. When a soul learns lessons, it is intended and expected to grow and enhance from the experience. Yet, there are a great many souls who do not learn lessons and remain in the same spot until the end of their life. The worst of the bunch are the ones wreaking all kinds of destruction, hate, judgment, and heartache in its wake. In Darkness of Ego, author Kevin Hunter infuses some of the guidance, messages, and wisdom he’s received from his Spirit team surrounding all things ego related. The ego is one of the most damaging culprits in human life. Therefore it is essential to understand the nature of the beast in order to navigate gracefully out of it when it spins out of control. Some of the topics covered in Darkness of Ego are humanity’s destruction, mass hysteria, karmic debt, the power of the mind, heaven’s gate, the ego’s war on love and relationships, as well as psychic insights, psychic timing, and much more. What Readers Have Said: "I want to point out that the book, "Darkness of Ego" is no assault to me. Speaking the truth, even the harsh truth, is no assault. It's stirring, awakening, disturbing even. I see the assault coming from those who let their egos slaughter all love in the world. The bearer or revealer of bad news is not to be blamed, the perpetrator or causer is. If I have to choose, I'll prefer the bitter truth over a sweet lie. Because I want to know exactly where I stand. Even if the bitter truth is haunting me and the sweet illusion would have been all I've ever wanted. That's why I appreciated the book, "Darkness of Ego". - A Reader "Author, Kevin Hunter, a Warrior of Light, provides a sharp and direct view on everything ego-related in our earthly lives in his book, "Darkness of Ego". He advises and encourages us to be aware of the ego and to decide for a path of love. I appreciate this book very much." - A Reader "I loved the "Darkness of Ego" book. I was in tears several times - releasing and healing tears. I'm so grateful for the blunt delivery of facts the author provides. When this book came out I said to myself: "Oh no, this is a negative one, I don't want to read any more negative stuff. There is enough darkness out there, and this book will not make it onto my bookshelf!" I was going through a personal crises and at that exact same time I was heavily guided to buy the "Darkness of Ego" book. After having finished Chapter 4, I skipped to Chapter 8 on Soul Connections. I was stunned at how enjoyable that chapter was! Not dark at all! I heard that the author wrote the "Realm of the Wise One" book and "Darkness of Ego" book at the same time. Wise One's are familiar with dealing with the dark for so long. He describes the Wise One's realm in one book and focused on the dark Ego in the other one. The Ego book is almost now seen as an extension of the Wise One book." - A Reader

The Phantom of the Ego is the first comparative study that shows how the modernist account of the unconscious anticipates contemporary discoveries about the importance of mimesis in the formation of subjectivity. Rather than beginning with Sigmund Freud as the father of modernism, Nidesh Lawtoo starts with Friedrich Nietzsche’s antimetaphysical diagnostic of the ego, his realization that mimetic reflexes—from sympathy to hypnosis, to contagion, to crowd behavior—move the soul, and his insistence that psychology informs philosophical reflection. Through a transdisciplinary, comparative reading of landmark modernist authors like Nietzsche, Joseph Conrad, D. H. Lawrence, and Georges Bataille, Lawtoo shows that, before being a timely empirical discovery, the “mimetic unconscious” emerged from an untimely current in literary and philosophical modernism. This book traces the psychological, ethical, political, and cultural implications of the realization that the modern ego is born out of the spirit of imitation; it is thus, strictly speaking, not an ego, but what Nietzsche calls, “a phantom of the ego.” The Phantom of the Ego opens up a Nietzschean back door to the unconscious that has mimesis rather than dreams as its via regia, and argues that the modernist account of the “mimetic unconscious” makes our understanding of the psyche new.

A medical psychiatrist and founding member of the Jung Foundation explores a pivotal part of analytical psychology: encountering the self through individuation This book is about the individual’s journey to psychological wholeness, known in analytical psychology as the process of individuation. Edward Edinger traces the stages in this process and relates them to the search for meaning through encounters with symbolism in religion, myth, dreams, and art. For contemporary men and women, Edinger believes, the encounter with the self is equivalent to the discovery of God. The result of the dialogue between the ego and the archetypal image of God is an experience that dramatically changes the individual’s worldview and makes possible a new and more meaningful way of life.

“Don’t read this book,” your Ego says. “Your life could change. And that scares me.” Sometimes our worst failures lead to our greatest transformation. In 2012, James McCrae left behind a comfortable life in Minnesota and a successful career in advertising to move to New York City and pursue his dreams of being a writer. Soon after he arrived, Hurricane Sandy ripped through the eastern seaboard. New York City was underwater, and James —jobless and running out of money—was suddenly homeless. Fleeing to the island of Culebra for refuge, James sat alone on Flamenco Beach while his greatest doubts and insecurities rose to the surface. What he discovered was his Ego—and it had a lot of sh#t to say. This story of adventure, redemption, and transformation reminds us that we all have two voices inside us: the Ego and the Higher Self. The Ego is our reactive, attached mind that tells us we’re victims of circumstance. The Higher Self is our source of intuition and imagination that reminds us we’re the creators of our reality. Sh#t Your Ego Says exposes the battle between these voices. With arresting honesty and candid, compelling prose, James takes you through practical strategies for overthrowing your Ego and reclaiming a life of creativity and freedom. Whether you’re looking to achieve meaningful career success, improve your relationships, or unlock your imagination, this book provides a no-nonsense roadmap to living with purpose.
