The core problem of humanity
EGO
The ROOT of all problems humanity has.
Just look at all the great ideas, concepts, visions, and potentials for the human race that have been thrown by the wayside over the eons, solely due to human EGO.
ALL Religions have been corrupted by the EGO.
ALL Governments have been corrupted by the EGO.
ALL Cultures have been corrupted by the EGO.
ALL humans are corrupted by the EGO.
WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND?!?!
AND WHY THE FUCK IS IT SO HARD TO PRACTICE?!?!

I tend to believe that the ego is the thought, feeling and/or sense of 'I' or in some cases, 'I Am'. @flemingfarm
The appearance of 'I' eventually leads to suffering but without the ego (a.k.a. 'I') there wouldn't be a human race or if there was, no one and nothing would be aware of it.
On my wls post I have a discussion going and this is probably a better wording for my perspective...
It is pretty much impossible to separate the human from the EGO after so many generations of ingraining the same concepts and ideologies of self, existence, and life. I believe if we were able to separate them we would find it is like Rick and Morty where they get the "toxins" removed. Human's would be unable to accept not having a bad side.
All pie eyed dreams for sure.
I think it's unrealistic to think humans can ever be perfect, since every strength we have is usually matched with some sort of weakness.
It's kind of like the Yin and the Yang. Every bad experience or trait has a hidden good inside of it and everything that is good also has a negative aspect.
I also still believe that the ego is the thought, feeling, and or sense of 'I' or 'I am'.
I personally meditated on the concept of 'I' to discover what it was and came to the conclusion that it is just a thought more or less, coupled with feelings and senses.
Behind the thoughts, feelings and senses lies an emptiness, the source of all existence. It's egoless and lacks a self but it also lacks qualities and details of any kind.
Everything that is aware of form has an ego, and only the formless and beings unaware of form lack an ego.
