"The personality is strong and powerful, extremely able, talented, resourceful, but the trouble is, it wants everything to revolve round it." (6th Post)

Any "Enchanted Garden Onion"(EGO) story will be based on personalities. In fact there have been musings on such things as an EGO Reality Show and EGO comics. I wonder if these creative ideas would qualify for what Omraam says is putting the personality "to work".

"If you observe the personality you see that it cannot hide or disguise itself, for its attitude and manner, its way of giving advice at the top of its voice and demanding attention at all times, are unmistakable. ..."[1]

I can't help but to think of a couple "EGO" people with this previous line that I've quoted of Omraam.

According to my Human Design my Personality Sun is activated at hexagram Line 3 and my Design Sun is at Line five. That gives me a 3/5 "Profile". It is one of twelve in the Human Design System (according to Jovian Human Design). The third line is the "Martyr" and the way of this line is by trial and error and resulting with with either "mutation" or "adaptation". It is a slow relief for me to know that "life bumps into (third liners) in every way, or they bump into it ...". The graduation here is with "what is learned when life bumps into (me), as well as how and when to correctly apply these discoveries."

The biggest "bumpings" I seem to get are with "EGO" personalities! After about seven and a half years of bumping into these people (and they bumping into me) I'm finally beginning to realize when and how to apply my discoveries. Two things I realize not to do is not to make others wrong and not to defend myself. The positive way of stating this is to see others as well as myself as innocent. Bumping is an innocent thing; ... even if it triggers something - it's still an innocent thing in and of itself.

This might qualify as a "bump" (as I'm thinking that another (guest) gardener unknowingly bumped into me.

The other day I received an email addressed to "... Radical Honesty Practitioners, Prophets and Perpetrators,". I had read the Radical Honesty book about ten years ago or so and afterword participated in a local truth-telling group. An over all good experience! Receiving the afore mentioned email inspired me to look into the offer for training and continue researching this subject matter. I then concluded that I am well aligned with the spirit of radical honesty as I honor my "Four (now Five) Agreements" and especially the first: "Be Impeccable With Your Word".

The next day (yesterday) I had communication with a fellow (guest) gardener and realized I had some "radical honesty" to share and I did. I shared some of my own feelings about the challenges of the "Enchanted Garden Onion"(EGO) as a whole plus the newly emerging voice of the EGO in its struggles with the separate voice of the garden manager. I ended by saying I need to just be with my emotional process. I definitely wasn't asking for any help let alone intervention or anything of that kind.

That evening I was invited by the manager to express myself. Then I learned that the guest disclosed what I considered as my private sharing (from earlier) with the manager and now I was being "questioned" about my statements. Some kind of a "bump" and I suddenly was immersed in Gate 12: "Standstill"!

My personal ego could possibly been enraged with a perceived/projected violation of privacy. Standingstill was the very best "non-response" for me at that time. I've ex[pressed something on the order of an outrage before with the manager and got really clear really fast that my heated emotional expression does not work at all for the manager. I just can't go there. Radical honesty does not necessarily give license to be reckless.

I have more of a Buddhist approach to mindful consider the impact of my word that I find supports my "First Agreement". Also my Defined Solar Plexus (Emotional Center) needs time to come to emotional clarity. Now that it's been about seven hours since meeting with the manager I feel I could possibly respond to the previous inquiry and report with considerable emotional clarity that I did not appreciate having what I had communicated to other individual (essentially as private) reported without my authorization. However I am aware that I'm still processing all of this as this "Bumping" incident ties into the very struggle between the whole "Onion" and the garden manager!

And writing this now I realize a root of the challenge with all of this. And I do not expect that to change because it concerns a behavior that runs as deep as it gets and I know that is not something I have any power over. The question for me comes back to the same question I identified with another long standing fellow gardener and that is "Is this situation something that I can accept or that I want to accept? This is the root that I have to process on my own (just as I had tried to communicate to the unconscious "bumper") and that leaking my private process to the manager wasn't really helpful to me on the contrary it added a certain underscore to the root condition. Yet, maybe that "underscoring" is "helpful" in the sense that it has inspired me to write about this now! And "writing" (journaling) can be helpful. In fact I recommend to others!

Just searched and found that Krishnamurti had Gate 12! I was inspired earlier to check that out based on how he reportedly would wait/"stand still" till his audience was truly receptive.

A Color Symbolism Chart[2] shows characteristics associated with the color purple (a favorite of a former "fellow gardener") that I find quite revealing as these characteristics include "cruelty" and "arrogance".
