What is the ego? Hi my name is Steven Schultz, and while I've only been studying christian mythicism for a few years now, I have studied philosophy and psychology my entire life. To me, ego is a confusion in human identity whereby we believe that we are some combination of our norms in behavior and of our preferences. But we are not that - we are someone who is so much more! Join me as we explore the difference between ego identity and soul identity, why the ego must die along the spiritual journey, how to prepare for the journey, and how we can find our way through it.
