The Ego has no insight, it is nothing more than mind disconnected from Spirit. What the ego thinks it sees, is taking the place of real vision.
When operating from the perspective of ego we lose sight of the perspective of Spirit. This changes how we experience the world on every level. The ego sees the world through the physical eyes and the perspective of seeing or sensing with the heart is lost.
The purpose of Spiritual practice is to realize that ego is what keeps us from experiencing Spirit. Spirit is that aspect of the Self we encounter when fear is conquered. This requires a surrendering, complete trust and absolute faith.
The ego is afraid of Spirit. Once the ego surrenders, power is shared, all control is lost and this is frightening to the ego.
