It is erroneous to limit the ‘I’ only to the ego. Without the ‘I’ the universes in which you exist cease to exist.+

First, realize the fact that you are the ego, therefore, you cannot get rid of the ego. The ego is the basis of the world in which you exist. People mistake the pride to be the ego but the ego is physical identity. That is, you are the physical identity, so you are the ego.

Without the ego, the world in which you exist cease to exist. The ego is the very basis of the universe. The universe ceases to exist without the ego.

Many seekers are venturing to get rid of the ego, but they are unaware of the fact that by getting rid of the ego, the truth will not reveal, they have to get rid of the ignorance, not ego.

Perfect understanding of ‘what is what' is very much necessary to realize the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time and space.

It is foolish to get rid of the ego alone because, the ego, body and the world in which you exist appear together and disappear together.

The ego is the false self within the false experience. The ego is the product of ignorance. The ignorance is the cause of experiencing the illusory duality as reality.

Without the ego, one cannot perceive the world as a person because the person itself is ego.

Remember:~

The body, ego, and the world are present only when the mind is present.

The mind is present in the form of the ‘I’.

The ‘I’ is present only when the mind is present.

The mind is present in the form of the universe.

The universe appears as the waking or the dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).

It is erroneous to limit the ‘I’ only to the ego. Without the ‘I’ the universes in which you exist cease to exist. Therefore, the ‘I’ is the whole universe.

The Self is not within their body, but the Self is hidden within the world, in which they exist.

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is one and undifferentiated. The dual and nondual experiences (waking or dream (duality) and deep sleep (nonduality) is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

In Self-awareness, the Soul withdraws the three states into itself and remains in its awareness in the midst of the duality. The Soul is indeed the Self —luminous. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
