El ego es una palabra derivada del griego Εγώ (Ego), que significa "yo". En las enseñanzas teosóficas, hay diferentes niveles del sentido del yoidad (ego) en nosotros. El ego personal (lower manas) es el "yo" psicológico que a menudo es egoísta. El ego superior (higher manas), también llamado "ego reencarnante", es el sentido impersonal del yo a nivel del alma. El ego espiritual (buddhi-manas) es un sentido iluminado del yo, presente en aquellos que reconocen el ser universal.
Descripción general
H. P. Blavatsky describió el Ego de la siguiente manera:
Yo (Lat.). “Yo”; la conciencia en el hombre de “Yo soy Yo”, o sea el sentimiento de la cualidad o condición de “Yo soy”. La filosofía esotérica enseña la existencia de dos Egos en el hombre, el mortal o personal, y el superior, divino e impersonal. Al primero le llama “Personalidad”, y al segundo “Individualidad”.[1]
