They say that everyone in the world has one of "8" personalities. These personalities, are diluted by our ego; and the personality as well as our ego both stemmed from a "Traumatic Experience" everyone has had as a child. Researchers say, the extent of how obvious and big the ego is, determines the extent of the Trauma.
Someone whos had a pretty average childhood will have a less inflated ego than someone whos had a rough childhood.
These egos aren't permanent. They are really just our sheild. Our self defense mechanism in life that have just been etched into our minds because of something that has happened to us as a kid.
It makes a lot of sense I think. Research says the ego can be broken. Just by purifying your mind and heart. Knowing your ego. knowing what caused it, and trying to become a purer you. Enneagram Institute: Enneagram Testing & Training
