The goal is not to let go of or destroy the ego completely. That would incapacitate you. Humans need an ego to survive.

The goal is to keep the ego in check, and to never prioritize your own ego over others. To get the ego to work FOR you, instead of being a slave to it.

Most people are slaves to their ego. We should try to make our ego slaves to our true self.

I usually buy an extra box...Hide it at the bottom of the freezer.
So later I freely let go of that offending yet tasty treat.

Well, being addressed as an asshole, I would say it's like dropping the kids off at the pool. It's a little uncomfortable and takes longer than expected. The seats gets a little wet as the kids go through the door, but in the end you feel a lot better about yourself and can finally concentrate on whatever you were doing before the kids came along.

If you want to experience easy instant ego-death, smoke a breakthrough dose of DMT.

Guaranteed ego-death, and a beautiful mind-blowing trip to go with it. The feeling of ego-death is absolutely TERRIFYING for the first minute of the trip, it feels liek you broke the Universe and are about to cease to exist.

But then you let go and... oblivion... and then... BANG you're on the other side, in a completely new world. You can't even remember what an ego or a human or Earth was, you instantly know a new language, and are interacting with strange beings.

It's pretty awesome. But it takes some balls, and an ability to let go, to enjoy.

The trick is in recognizing it when it appears.

When it does, just treat it like your little toddler who keeps getting out of the crib...

Eventually you'll figure out how to keep him in and he'll just stop trying to get out...

You can't get rid of ego any more than you can stop breathing, but you can become more humble.

Sounds like that is a problem for you, though, op.

insult yourself (criticism)
get others to do it anonymously

Realize you are one of MANY and not all that useful.
Really, what have you done to make the world a better place?
Will it really matter even 100 years from now if you die?

Helps a little to try tossing/catching a toy "water snake" with a friend. Forces you to think of what other people want and not just what you want.

Keep learning new things. Study and stretch your
knowledge. I have learned the more I learn, the
more humble I feel.

When I was really stupid, I felt full of me. Ego
shrinks with realizing how much we do not know.
