Nobody who finds himself on the road to wholeness can escape that characteristic suspension which is the meaning of crucifixion. For he will infallibly run into things that thwart and “cross” him: first, the thing he has no wish to be (the shadow); second, the thing he is not (the “other,” the individual reality of the “You”); and third, his psychic non-ego (the collective unconscious).
Carl Jung - CW16 par. 470
The predators gave us their mind
[The old sorcerers] discovered that we have a companion for life. We have a predator that came from the depths of the cosmos and took over the rule of our lives. Human beings are its prisoners. The predator is our lord and master. It has rendered us docile, helpless. If we want to protest, it suppresses our protest. If we want to act independently, it demands that we don’t do so.
In order to keep us obedient and meek and weak, the predators engaged themselves in a stupendous maneuver - stupendous, of course, from the view of a fighting strategist. A horrendous maneuver from the point of view of those who suffer it. They gave us their mind! Do you hear me? The predators gave us their mind, which becomes our mind. The predator’s mind is baroque, contradictory, morose, filled with the fear of being discovered any minute now. Through the mind, which, after all, is their mind, the predators inject into the lives of human beings whatever is convenient for them.

sort of psychic virus that attached itself to the psyche of man and inflated his ego to the point he would put his own selfishness before empathy ~ Congjing Yu

Panentheism
If you believe in pantheism and take all of our universe away there’s nothing left, no God. If you believe in panentheism and you take everything away there’s still some transcendence left.
Stefan Karl
It is the ego that has kept men small, fearful, and separate
You believe, rather than think, that the ego knows what you want.
Yet it only knows how to keep you safe, comfortable, and secure.
The beauty of practicing getting out of your own way, is that eventually your ego gets used to driving in the back seat.
The ego will finally fall away and the seeds of Truth will finally blossom.

Sadhguru on parallel universes
84th cycle with currently 21 active creations. Not that I am particularly in love with Sadhguru, take everything with a grain of salt, but it is an interesting hypotheses nonetheless.
