DWQA Questions › Tag: ego functionFilter:AllOpenResolvedClosedUnansweredSort byViewsAnswersVotesWikipedia defines the Dunning-Kruger effect as follows: “The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias whereby people with low ability, expertise, or experience regarding a certain type of a task or area of knowledge tend to overestimate their ability or knowledge.” This effect seems common, and when encountered, almost completely resistant to challenge or debate. What is Creator’s perspective on the Dunning-Kruger effect? How much can be attributed to subconscious programming, and how much to the simple immaturity of the incarnated human?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption138 views0 answers0 votesA person with Dunning-Kruger might say something like, “… of course, I don’t know. I don’t NEED to know. I have COMMON SENSE.” And then expects their opinion to carry equal (or even greater) weight in a given debate. Can Creator share just how a person comes to think this way?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption109 views0 answers0 votesAnother behavior related to Dunning-Kruger would be a tendency to appeal to some kind of superior credential, even and especially if it is completely unrelated to the given debate at hand. Such a credential would be physical age: “Well young man, I am twenty years your senior, I think I know a thing or two.” Or, “You’re talking to a decorated veteran, show some respect!” Or, “I’ve lived a good life, had a lucrative career, raised three upstanding children, and am a grandparent to boot! I think my opinion should matter!” This tendency to take shelter in some kind of superior, if wholly unrelated and even irrelevant credential, is widespread and sometimes very problematic. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption116 views0 answers0 votesCreator described the ego in a previous GetWisdom LIVE program as follows: “The ego is a limited vessel, a limited capability that puts the self, first. As such, it is kind of like having a suit of armor that is self-protective. It might be awkward to wear, inconvenient, even drag you down from the sheer weight and inconvenience of suiting up before you make an excursion where you are at risk, but a potential lifesaver if you are attacked and would otherwise be vulnerable and perish. The suit of armor gives you a fighting chance at least. The ego, in the same way, is more like a weapon in being quite focused on your supremacy. In a sense, it is your last refuge to maintain an advantage and hold your ground to stand up to those who would bully you or intimidate, and provide a wherewithal to weather the storm.” The Dunning-Kruger effect appears to be the ego fulfilling this very function in a crude, imprecise, but very forceful and compelling manner. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption127 views0 answers0 votesCreator has previously discussed five principal selves that make up the human being—the deep subconscious, subconscious, cellular consciousness, primary or conscious self, and the higher self. What about the ego? Can it be, should it be, characterized as a “sixth self?” And if not, why not?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption147 views0 answers0 votesWe have learned that some skills, muscle memory, and other proclivities we call natural talent, can be recorded in the akashic records, and re-introduced into the cellular consciousness of a new body in a new incarnation. This is how natural talent can be carried over from lifetime to lifetime. What about the ego? Is it also recorded in the akashic records and re-introduced in some fashion to a new incarnation? Is it, like karma and physical talent, left behind when one becomes a light being but re acquired upon a new incarnation (so the incarnating soul can essentially pick up where they left off)? Is the ego truly left behind when the departing consciousness enters the light and is it one of the big reasons there is more wisdom and clarity as light beings? Or is the ego of a particular lifetime utterly lost upon transition, and new incarnations start off with an essentially blank ego?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption121 views0 answers0 votesCreator has said that the angels have egos. It would be assumed then that light beings also have egos of some sort. Is there a difference between the ego of a physical incarnation, and the ego of a light being?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption132 views0 answers0 votesThe ego does not appear to be brain-dependent, as lost soul spirits, when encountered by human victims and healers and psychics, seem to display lots of functioning ego characteristics. Can Creator comment on the ego’s reliance or lack of reliance on the physical brain?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption117 views0 answers0 votesAt what age does the ego really take hold in a new incarnation? What can parents and caregivers do to help foster the healthy development of their child’s ego?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption127 views0 answers0 votesOver-inflated egos and the Dunning-Kruger effect seem to represent pressing healing needs for much of humanity. Can Creator share how Empowered Prayer and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the best tools for bringing about the highest and best form of healing?ClosedNicola asked 1 year ago • Human Corruption113 views0 answers0 votesElizabeth Clare Prophet took over The Summit Lighthouse when her husband Mark L. Prophet died in 1973. He founded this organization in 1958 to spread a message combining elements of Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Theosophy. The New York Times had this to say upon her death in 2009: “In 1975, she founded the Church Universal and Triumphant, a formal religion with ceremonies and sacraments, extending the work of the Lighthouse. The religion’s teachings were derived from divine messages believed to be transmitted by the Ascended Masters, a pantheon of mystic saints and sages, among them Jesus and the Theosophist Master El Morya. Its worldwide membership was once estimated at 30,000 to 50,000 people.” What can Creator tell us about Elizabeth Clare Prophet? Did she really receive messages from Ascended Masters?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls263 views0 answers0 votesIn the late 1980s, Mrs. Prophet issued warnings of an impending nuclear strike by the Soviet Union against the United States. More than 2,000 of her followers left their homes and gathered at the church’s compound near Corwin Springs, Montana, near the northern edge of Yellowstone National Park. There they began stockpiling weapons, food, and clothing in underground bomb shelters. Of course, the prophesized nuclear strike never happened, and the Church went into rapid decline after this, and today a much smaller remnant remains. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls206 views0 answers0 votesMrs. Prophet experienced early onset Alzheimer’s disease at age 58 and died twelve years later. She lost her ability to write in just two years, and her ability to speak not long after that. We learned from Creator that Alzheimer’s is actually the workings of the deep subconscious responding to the self’s desire to “escape” overwhelming anxiety stemming from a lifetime of emotional wounding. Did the pressures of leading a large spiritual community, feeling responsible for their welfare, the distress and fallout stemming from the inaccurate prediction of nuclear war, and all that entailed, and perhaps having no one to turn to, no one she could lean on and draw strength from, create the mental conditions leading to her Alzheimer’s and relatively early passing? Were spirit attachments a contributing factor, or was this some other form of victimization? Is she in the light, or does she need a Spirit Rescue?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls193 views0 answers0 votesWas all that doomsday preparation they did a kind of folly? Were her followers sold an interloper “bill of goods” and sent on a wild goose chase that arguably sidelined the movement, and neutered its genuine potential to awaken humanity? If the nuclear war she actually foresaw had come to pass, how would her community likely have fared?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Channeling Pitfalls147 views0 answers0 votesIn addition to being a channeler, Mrs. Prophet was an extremely knowledgeable theologian. She republished the entire Book of Enoch in her book, Fallen Angels and the Origins of Evil. She mentioned a work by Athenagoras, Legatio, written about A.D. 170 that had this line: “The souls of the giants are the demons who wander the world.” Prophet wrote that this teaching was directly from Enoch, the purported grandson of Adam (of Adam and Eve). Creator has shared with Karl the reality of Anunnaki spirits in limbo. Seems this knowledge has been available since almost the beginning of humanity but suppressed.
