How did the ego arise ?

[Guest guest]

D: How did the ego arise ?

 

[here is a question that gives rise to endless philosophising,

but Bhagavan , holding rigorously to the truth of non-duality,

refused to admit its existence . Arthur Osborne's comment]

 

B: There is no ego. If there were you would have to admit

of two selves in you . Therefore there is no ignorance .

If you enquire into the Self , ignorance , which is already

nonexistent, will be found not to exist and you will say that

it has fled.
