Formation & reinforcement of the subjective self

[Guest guest]

I wrote:

 

 

"The vedanta describes ego concisely as the

"dEhaatma bhava" i.e, identification of the supreme Self with the physical

body. While the physical body with the senses is at the root of the process

of formation & accumulation of ego, there is a larger process of

accumulation of ego"

 

 

Correction: I think the implication of a "larger process" beyond the

perspective of Vedanta is unintentional. What I wanted to say is that "a

more concrete analysis can be put in place to understand the development &

activity of the subjective self". Since the body and the senses are at the

root of the hierarchy in forming the ego complex, _dEhAtma bhAva_ would be a

very succinct, yet semantically loaded way to describe ego.
