Self vs Not Self

Some say that our ego must necessarily fight for its existence ... by another name that is called RWG, or "the right wrong game".

From a positive perspective this is expressed as follows ...

care for what you are.

realize who, what, why you are ...

with no symbolization

............................................................................................................................

But Bozo's law states that "for every meme there is a anti-meme of equal truth."

Hence we get ...

care for that which you are not.

selfies & rwg are entirely different distinctions.

well rwg is a specific selfie behavior ... so yes we can draw a distinction between a selfie and what a selfie frequently does. What, outside of that, are you saying?

Your first sentence then

Bozo: ... Some say that our ego must necessarily fight for its existence ... by another name that is called RWG, or "the right wrong game".

... is in error the selfie does not have to fight, but it does protect it's own integrity in many ways besides argumentation & fighting. Like telling itself lies, making up the past & future in stories, making believe that it does things for one reason or another - real or not, etc.

Huh? i am having sever troubles understanding the specific thing you are bringing out here.

Assume there is a distinction between an ego and what that ego does ... how that ego behaves. You mention several ways an ego behaves ... i agree it does all of those things ... and we can even distinguish between those different behaviors ... and perhaps one class of those behaviors we have started calling the "rwg". Are we not in agreement on that?

Alternatively there is no distinction between an ego and what an ego does.

So which are you saying? ... or what outside of that are you saying?

Pain bodies fight. The self only experiences.

Those memes above are not opposites. One is simply a particular case of the other.

ZZzzz…
