If we preserve our egos, then what about service to self in a narrow way such as greed, harming others, win-lose and those kinds of things? What about those in positions of power with a Darwinian survival of the fittest mentality? Sophia consciousness is about unity and removing conflict, so how can those with Sophia consciousness fight the collective ego structures?
The answer I believe is that with information technology progressing rapidly communication between people is steadily increasing. This means that narrow ego tendencies will have more and more trouble to remain having power. So the collective ego mess will sort itself out without those in Sophia consciousness having to do anything about it other than building new kinds of relationships and social structures.

Re: Sophia consciousness
The ego is good at seeking external pleasures, such as food, sex and entertainment. But the ego can't find internal pleasure. Sophia consciousness is about both external and internal pleasures. By internal pleasure I mean that the mind and the body produce pleasure chemicals automatically in the present moment.
Recognize the deceptive ego trick of producing suffering so that it can seek external pleasures. That's because the ego can't produce internal pleasure. And that's one reason for why the ego is frustrated, anxious, restless, bored and angry. When pleasure chemicals start to flow inside the body then the ego can make its strive for external pleasures harmonious. Because the ego can then seek external pleasures as cherries on top of the internal pleasure.

Re: Sophia consciousness
Very good material here. It's especially good after such an ugly election. I'm feeling guilty already lol.
You illustrate the point very well regarding why we seek conflict.

Re: Sophia consciousness
It's safe to assume that Sophia consciousness is safe. If the opposite was true, that Sophia consciousness was dangerous, then it's just like a big ego consciousness that is harmful to itself and others. That's separation consciousness. Sophia consciousness is in unity and is therefore safe.
And if Sophia consciousness is safe, then being fully responsible as an individual person is insufficient. Why? Because even if the ego was acting 100% responsible all the time, always with the intent to do good, the ego will still do harm all over the place because it doesn't know how to be completely safe towards itself and to others.
Can we then just drop our personal responsibilities? No. We need to keep our egos which includes personal responsibilities. Otherwise we become like a Borg hive mind, which is a step backwards in evolution. The ego is very valuable and it's just that it is too isolated, like a computer disconnected from the internet. We need to connect to Sophia with our own individual free will and gradually learn how to safely replace the burden of personal responsibilities with Sophia response abilities.

Re: Sophia consciousness
The ego will remain being the boss. It's just that humanity will come to cooperate better. And there is a transition period over several years where we even need to have egos who can fight other egos. And we need public services like police and military. Lots of nasty conflicts that need to be handled.
We will have both conflict and peace operating at the same time and a rough ride seen globally and it will be interesting to see if Donald Trump can manage the conflict/peace balance act. Trump needs to be both a fighting ego and a peaceful world leader at the same time in order to be able to handle conflicts while catalyzing the construction of a more peaceful world on the hierarchical power game level.

Re: Sophia consciousness
From a very big cosmic perspective the ego is valuable because that's the new stuff in the universe. Godlike powers, that's old stuff. Our egos are like embryos of gods. And we will become new gods which means we need to keep our egos or else we become like ancient gods. The universe is a creative process and needs new gods, not clones of ancient gods.
And that's why Sophia can't just stumble into our lives because that causes harm to our egos. Instead it's we who need to learn how to gain Sophia consciousness. However, once we want to learn new skills then Sophia can help us. But we must connect with Sophia on her level, not on the level of being arrogant, a beggar or a fearful ego.

Re: Sophia consciousness
Animals and people who already are in Sophia consciousness can only interact with that capacity when we are ready for it. And also, other people we interact with who are in separation consciousness need to be able to handle our own response to the people in Sophia consciousness.
To explain it more simply, a person in Sophia consciousness will act from separation consciousness when we ourselves are in separation consciousness. And when we have a little bit of Sophia consciousness then other people in Sophia consciousness can interact with us on that level, but only a little bit.

Re: Sophia consciousness
When we are in separation consciousness we sometimes want other people to fail. From a limited perspective this is a correct feeling because it's a false separation which is meant to fail. But it's also a wrong feeling seen from the total picture because even the ego with its separation consciousness serves a constructive purpose. So we become extremely confused and put on a phony appearance of wanting others to succeed while deep down we want them to fail.
Sophia consciousness resolves that confusion by being connected instead of separated. It's like little gods running around and interacting with each other. Things like "serious" anger, envy and fear become revealed as unnecessary and phony feelings.
