Clearing the ego is the capacity to expand

I've created this digital art piece as an homage to biodiversity and also inspired by the words of Homaya Amar, a spiritual guide and mentor for healers. During the past weeks, I was listening to one of her masterclasses and I was particularly inspired by her concept of "EGO". Our Ego is fundamental for self-esteem, and at the same time, it is what allows us to distinguish ourselves from the world. Homaya considers that clearing the ego is the capacity to expand and to perceive ourselves as interconnected beings. Everything that is inside the circle of ego is encapsulated, limited, and rotating on itself. When the limits are cleared, it expands, and all its beautiful hidden shapes are visible. Its content is not deleted, it enlarges and becomes part of everything. Clearing the ego is in fact the capacity to expand.
