Listening to Wayne Dyer’s “everyday wisdom”. (which is so good by the way)
This is one of the great phrases-
Wayne Dyer’s phrase “Enlightenment is your ego’s greatest disappointment” means that genuine inner peace comes when you stop needing life—and other people—to reinforce the identity your ego has created.
In Dyer’s view, the ego says:
* I need to be right.
* I need to prove myself.
* I need to control what happens.
* I need to be recognized for what I’ve accomplished.
* I need to protect the story of who I am.
Enlightenment, as he uses the term, is realizing you are more than that story.
So the ego gets disappointed because enlightenment takes away many of the things it feeds on: comparison, judgment, control, recognition, and the need to be somebody.
