Self Knowledge

In Ancient Greece, when the philosopher Socrates was asked to sum up what all philosophical commandments could be reduced to, he replied: "Know yourself". Self-knowledge matters so much because it is only on the basis of an accurate sense of who we are that we can make reliable decisions - particularly around love and work. This book takes us on a journey into our deepest, most elusive selves and arms us with a set of tools to understand our characters properly.

The Enneagram - a universal symbol of human purpose and possibility - is an excellent tool for doing the hardest part of consciousness work: realizing, owning, and accepting your strengths and weaknesses. In this comprehensive guide, Beatrice Chestnut, PhD, traces the development of the personality as it relates to the nine types of the Enneagram, the three different subtype forms each type can take, and the path each of us can take toward liberation. With her guidance, listeners will learn to observe themselves, face their fears and more.

Self-identification with one’s state of being is the great trap. So, we must first become aware of the props we use to maintain who we think we are. It begins with: “I’m a woman” or “I’m a man.” There’s strong identification. There’s strong support for the ego, for that “I am” is the ego itself talking. Next, we identify with our abilities and our knowledge. “This is what I can do!” and “This is what I know.” Two further strong supports for the ego.

Seduction still arouses controversy and wonder. Is it a sophisticated form of art, a psychological game, or perhaps the most powerful method of manipulation? Although seduction may seem like a male prerogative, as men are usually the conquerors, you will find that we, women, can also be seductive. In the past, women initiated seduction very subtly. A woman would nonchalantly allow her handkerchief to fall near the man whose attention she wanted to attract. He would pick it up and approach the woman while firmly convinced that he alone was the initiator. But still, the question remains: who ...

What if life is not a dream, but a reality prison?

People keep track. In the 18th century, Benjamin Franklin kept charts of time spent and virtues lived up to. Today, people use technology to self-track: hours slept, steps taken, calories consumed, medications administered. Ninety million wearable sensors were shipped in 2014 to help us gather data about our lives. This audiobook examines how people record, analyze, and reflect on this data, looking at the tools they use and the communities they become parts of.

The question, “Who am I?” is a tricky one. Most approaches available to those who seek answer to this question are rooted in the ‘self’ itself, making study of the ‘self’ in order to find its reality. Anyone following these approaches is bound to get trapped in the ‘self’ in such a way that it becomes difficult for him to escape from it. This question itself is genuine but once a person starts trying to find answer for it, inevitably his efforts lead him to a blind alley. Once he arrives there, generally he takes recourse to self-deception and starts indulging in philosophy ...

Why did I write this book, and why did I call it EGOnomics? I believe you need to defend your ego against countless efforts to diminish it. Anti-ego ideologies often equivocate between egoism and narcissism and treat both concepts as if they were the same. The proponents of “anti-ego” do not like to witness a person expressing pride and self-regard, or when he is praised for having done something good or beneficial for himself. “Who does he think he is?” they ask. In this book I want to straighten out our understanding of the human ego and I want to give you tools to help you feel ...
