Ego A two hour online teaching
with Andrew Cohen
Sunday 8th September 2019
Dear Friend,
Last month’s teaching was about Intersubjective Nonduality - coming together with others in an awakened, transcendent field of shared consciousness beyond ego.
The path and practice of Evolutionary Enlightenment is ultimately about creating a new world in this uncharted and rarefied territory.
But what is ego? There are many different definitions of ego, but what does it mean in the context of enlightenment – and specifically in the context of Evolutionary Enlightenment?
Put simply, ego is that part of ourselves that stands in the way of our individual and collective potential to evolve. It is our conscious and unconscious attachment to relative forms of self-identity that inhibit the process of spiritual evolution and enlightenment.
Ego is the imprisoning illusion of separateness. It is the unrelenting need to remain separate in all places, in all times, and in all circumstances. It is negative pride, arrogant self-importance, and an unwavering focus on our psychological and emotional wounds.
While this fundamental habit of attention remains unbroken, no matter how diligently we practice, truly radical transformation will always remain elusive. But how do we begin to understand, confront and ultimately transcend this dimension in ourselves?
Enlightenment always has been and always will be about evolution beyond ego, but the subject remains controversial, complex and subtle. In this teaching, Andrew Cohen will explore the many different faces and facets of ego, both individual and collective, in the context of the aspiration to evolve.
Andrew will show you why, at this critical point in our evolution, it’s more urgent than ever to identify the dimensions of ego in ourselves, and to learn and practice new habits of attention.
The teaching will cover the following questions:
What is ego, and why is it considered the eternal enemy of freedom?
What are the different definitions of ego?
How do we begin to consciously identify this dimension in ourselves?
How can we begin to transcend ego?
What is individual versus cultural ego?

Andrew Cohen's teachings are brilliant in their simplicity. I have been a spiritual seeker for 25 years, and have experimented with multiple teachings. I find Andrew's approach, temperament and commitment to be not only powerful, but also fully approachable. His dual approach of merging traditional spiritual teachings with evolutionary spirituality cuts through much confusion and distortion. Andrew Cohen is a truly inspiring teacher.
– Rudy
As a scholar, I live in a world where people are passionate about articulating the nature of the dual world. Andrew Cohen is different – he is pioneering the articulation of the non-dual and the inter-penetration of these two realities. There is quite simply no other teacher who can do this right now. In a loud and confusing spiritual marketplace, Andrew is the real thing. His transmission will change your life forever, if you let it.
– Sally
I feel a deep sense of honor and joy having been a part of Andrew's first Evolutionary Enlightenment online course. His stable and enlightened presence allows room for the full discovery of me in a relative sense and also provokes an ongoing and living desire in me for true freedom and liberation.
– Karen
Evolutionary Enlightenment was the recognition of my own deeply felt truth. Awakening to the absolute is one thing – staying awake and becoming a conscious agent of evolution takes something else. Andrew shook me up by detecting a flaw in my thinking that I didn’t realise was there. I had lost my ability to totally surrender. The Universe needs me to want to be here – I can embrace this fully now. Thank you Andrew for unwaveringly following your calling.
– Andrea
Reading Andrew's brilliantly written book "Evolutionary Enlightenment" took me on a wild journey beyond time and space, and helped me to envision an extraordinary collective future. But his physical presence at a recent teaching enabled me to reconcile the relative mortal self with the eternal Self Absolute, as partners in the bliss of infinite creativity. This wonderful, unique and very simple fusion of radical teaching and deep meditation changed my perception about dealing with daily life forever!
– Henk
With Evolutionary Enlightenment, Andrew Cohen continues where other Advaita teachers stop. His unique way is an integration of Being and Becoming. All that sitting on a cushion and tuning in to the silence and the void is beautiful. But there is more. Beyond the silence, we are also the relentless momentum of creation itself. Silence is no longer an end in itself, but a way of tuning in to that which longs to manifest through you. After numerous journeys with so many teachers, deep inside I can sense that this is so true.
