The point isn't to deny our Egos, but to extricate ourselves from our exclusive preoccupation with them.
We kill each other over which name to call the Nameless.
Our journey is about being more deeply involved in life, and yet less attached to it.
Truth waits for eyes unclouded by longing.
Our whole spiritual transformation brings us to the point where we realize that in our own being, we are enough.
You may protest if you can love the person you are protesting against as much as you love yourself.
