Guest guest Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 dearest swamiji: what happens when my ego dies? swamiji: absolutely nothing. -=- This nothing is called Kundalini by some and the Holy Spirit by others. But doctors call it insanity that the body needs to appear real. -= And the body appears real as long as the ego is alive to keep it real.

If ego is'nt real and does'nt exist, then anything that treatens it also is'nt real and does'nt exist. A Course in Miracles also says, " Spirit is in a state of grace forever. Your reality is only spirit. Therefore you are in a state of grace forever. " So why worry about the death of ego? It's already dead.

Its very structure and sustenance is composed of fear. toombaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
