Guest guest Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 there is one more question i want to ask the learned members. I want to know the nature of "ego"and what is meant by ego in spiritual sense. --------Ego in the spiritual sense is the thread of awareness which ties one to a locale. As one moves self consciousness away from a mere body reference to a cosmic reference the ego becomes less localized until it can no longer be pin pointed (not that it can be pinpointed anyway, the ego is really a mental illusion in the first place). The loosening of the ego per se is what starts the kundalini in motion. The two things occur simultaneously. I can understand the english meaning. for example we say with khadgamal practice we cut the ego from the body, etc.. like we read somewhere that you have to dissolve ones ego to merge itself to the supreme. like we say that lalita is the primordial energy, etc..with this defintion one gets the scientific as well as spiritual understanding. we know where we are heading. in the same way I wish to know what is ego, if we have to dissolve it what we have to dissolve in energy/shakti terms. --------You can't hope to dissolve the ego by the force of the ego. The ego will be dissolved only through merging in something bigger and more satisfying than ones limited personality. This is why the paths of bliss are more profound and quicker than the paths of study. Bliss stabilizes the personality when the ego is fading away. The process of the ego fading is not an easy one, and anyone who says otherwise hasn't traversed that path. Ultimately there was no ego in the first place. If your believe that there truely is one then please point out where it lies? The ego becomes replaced by the mandala of deities and the whole inner workings of the cosmos in the temple of the body. --------This ego's two cents - as usual, not enough money for a cup of coffee. I hope learned members will understand what I wish to know an will provide me their view. thanks. jatin. jatin --- virendra qazi <virendraqazi wrote: > Respected Menon Ji, > > Pranam!
