LEADING WITHOUT EGO

Just as people confuse love and attachment, it is natural for people to confuse ego and self-confidence. To comprehend the concept of ego, it is first important to understand the idea of self-confidence.

Join Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche as he analyses and breaks down the key differences between ego and self-confidence. It is important to realize that both concepts give us self-power. Yet, the self-power from ego, be it individual or collective, has a temporary effect with lasting harm to oneself. Ego can make you anyone’s target, causing pain that leads to ongoing problems. The self-power from ego doesn’t align with reality, and eventually turns into pain and suffering. The root of pain and suffering arises from our failure to accept the reality of nature.

There is still hope! Nurturing self-power through self-confidence guides us to accept the reality of nature. Unlike ego, self-confidence encourages personal growth, learning from others and gradually building self-esteem. Find out what Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche means, when he says:
