Q-We need ego to live in this world. Ego is God. Isn't it?
A - Ego may be needed in a small portion to lead a normal life. I too maintain my ego. But in spiritual parlance, ego is not needed. Rationale is "Once you bring God in - Ego is the first element to go out." If you talk in terms of God and human ego, it is contradictory. Check any men of wisdom. Entry in to Godly territory means driving out ego. Our assumption of EGO is ME ness. This ME ness is needed to live in this world. But the EGO is obstruction to go to God's territory. Our aim is to enter in to that pure consciousness. God sheds light on darkness. Ego has no value, it has no assumption then. You can be in this world and be EGO less. Real self is the real form of the person full of godliness. Mere Self is what you live in this world. |
