Ramesh Balsekar Let Life Flow 3. Ego The Start of Separation

In this dialogue, Ramesh Balsekar explores the birth of the ego — how a child, once free of “me,” gradually learns to identify with name, body, and mind. Conditioning by parents and society shapes the sense of a separate self, along with fear, guilt, and the burden of responsibility. Ramesh explains that the ego itself is not the problem; it is a natural part of life. The real bondage lies in the belief that “I am the doer.” From this illusion arise suffering, conflict, and the endless search for happiness. True love and freedom come not from destroying the ego, but from seeing through doership and accepting life exactly as it unfolds. The sage, Ramesh points out, still appears as an individual yet lives without anxiety, guilt, or pride. In the absence of resistance, peace becomes the natural state. “ the ego is not destroyed – only seen for what it is” 00:00 – Opening Music Instrumental chant creates a meditative mood for the dialogue ahead. 04:08 – Introducing the Topic: The Ego Ramesh begins exploring what the ego really is and why it’s misunderstood. 05:54 – Ego as Friend, Not Enemy Instead of “killing” the ego, Ramesh reframes it as a natural identification with body and name. 07:26 – The Sage’s Ego and Doership Sages retain individuality but lose the sense of personal doership. 09:10 – Self-Realization: No One Is the Doer Freedom arises through the deep realization that all action happens by cosmic law. 12:06 – How the Ego Forms in Childhood Tracing the birth of “I” — when the child shifts from third-person to “me.” 15:09 – Child and Sage: Same Awareness, Different Knowing The child’s innocence mirrors the sage’s wisdom, one ignorant, one understanding. 17:16 – The Moment Ego Arrives: “I Like, I Don’t Like” Personal will and tantrums appear as the sense of individuality solidifies. 20:09 – Ego’s Role in Survival and Relationship Ego enables preference, fear, and inter-human connection — life’s social play. 22:27 – Parenting and Destiny Parents can only act according to their conditioning; the child’s path unfolds by destiny. 26:22 – Conditioning, Confusion, and Fear Contradictions in upbringing breed uncertainty, leading to vulnerability and fear. 30:41 – Sexual Awakening and Conditioning Ramesh discusses the natural emergence of sexuality and its societal restrictions. 33:40 – Programming and Destiny Define All Outcomes Children differ because each is uniquely programmed — destiny shapes every life. 36:41 – Relationships and Advice: Freedom from Control Give advice if you must, but don’t expect it to be followed — that’s freedom. 38:03 – Love as Absence of Hate Ramesh redefines love not as emotion but as the natural state when hatred ends. 43:00 – Money and Happiness Study Research shows poor nations often rank higher in happiness than wealthy ones. 47:09 – The Western Seeker’s Disillusionment When wealth and success fail to satisfy, the search for peace begins. 51:13 – What Shatters Inner Peace Peace is broken only by self-hatred or hatred of others — both rooted in doership. 54:13 – The Key: Accepting No One Is a Doer Peace endures only through total acceptance that all action is impersonal. 56:43 – Living Without Doership Continue to act as if you are the doer, knowing you are not — like saying “sunrise.” 1:00:14 – Decisions and Programming Every choice arises from one’s nature and conditioning — free will is apparent, not real. 1:01:31 – Religion Confirms Non-Doership “All is God’s will” — echoed across Hinduism, Christianity, and Islam. 1:03:13 – Life of a Sage Ramesh reflects on his own transformation: anxiety fades, acceptance deepens. 1:07:29 – Closing Music Chant and instrumental reprise return the listener to silence and contemplation. ......................................
