Egoism under Control

232.09Question: We are used to receiving some results after we put in an effort. Is the lack of a result a result for our ego? Will it agree to make efforts if we keep deceiving it this way?

Answer: We are not deceiving it. We are merely working in order to find out what the ego that exists within us is and how we should work with it. This is called help from the opposite. Without it, we will be unable to advance.

Egoism needs food and everything depends on how you feed it.

Question: But will it agree to exert efforts without result if we know in advance that there will be no result?

Answer: This is impossible. You have to make an agreement with it that it will receive some small portion, but it will be under your control.
