Poison for the Heart

 

 

Self   12 / 15

The real me

Q: Is the ego the real self?

A: The ego is an illusion.

Q: You are denying the reality of the ego. How can you tackle the ego if you deny its existence?

A: If I created the illusion of an elephant floating in mid-air, would the elephant really exist? The illusion certainly exists, but the elephant is not a reality. As soon as I stop creating the causes for the illusion it immediately ceases. So it is with the ego.
