How can you identify an alter ego?

Question

I understand that an alter ego is a secondary or alternative personality. and i understand that Batman's alter ego is Bruce Wayne (for example). but that example is obvious because it is the same physical person. But what are some other examples and how did you identify them?

Answer 1

Some people use alter egos to hide themselves, not display themselves. I quote Kill Bill, and it's words of wisdom. Spider-man and Superman are two great hereos. Yet Spiderman was born Peter Parker and puts on a mask to hide hwo he really is. Superman was born a hero and Clark Kent is his mask, he takes his mask off to show his true self to the world. After all his iconic S was a part of his family heritage and was identified when the Kents found him

Answer 2

I am an alter ego. I am a secondary personality to someone else :) Can't tell you who, we are on an important mission. My primary personality just looked within herself and there I was, very easily identified. I embody strength, control and resolve in my primary personality.

Answer 3

The true alter ego is the ego. It is illusion. The true person is you, there is no other. You are mind. All minds are connected. You are not your body.

Two good books on the ego are A New Earth by Ekhardt Tolle and A Course in Miracles. To know your true self you must be able to decipher the ego.

Answer 4

same person different persona.
