I received an interesting question recently and it was, "I am not a student of I AM University, can I still clear the negative ego?"
My answer is of course!
Whatever your religion, school of thought or spiritual practices, as long as you dedicate your time and energy to engage in developing and refining your consciousness and learn to spot the negative ego at work within your own consciousness, you can transcend the negative ego. And work towards integrating God/Christ/Buddha/Spiritual/Ascended Masters' consciousness.
The work of I AM University is focused on assisting initiates to develop and refine one's consciousness, and the materials and curriculum cover a full spectrum teachings of all major religions/school of thought on earth. And admittedly, the curriculum and materials do make things a lot easier for people. But even though one may not be an official student of the I AM University, it does not mean that they cannot clear the negative ego.
Some key qualities that one must have in order to clear the negative ego are: discipline, self honesty, humility, humbleness, discernment, defenselessness (as opposed to being defensive), open mindedness, trusting one's inner guidance and to balance this with being open to receiving guidance from others (if one is not open to receiving guidance from others who have walked ahead then one is missing out on some valuable wisdom, if one does not trust one's inner guidance, then one may be giving too much power away to other people. So a balance is very important.)
Many of my clients and students include Christians, Buddhists, Muslims and other minority religions as well as spiritual practitioners in the new age movement. The goal for all is to transcend the negative ego which affects all of us, no matter what our religions or spiritual practices are.
Namaste.
