Separation from the Ego II (190)

Introduction

Separation is where we comprehend that what is bothering us is really an ego and not something else. And that the ego is not us. Separation is really a sort of comprehension it is to comprehend that the ego is not us or is not the consciousness.


Separating

To do separation well we really have to know what the hell we are. We have to know and comprehend that we are the consciousness that what we are is space, is awareness and is nothing. In the sense of no “I”.


Conclusion

The Tibetan Buddhists are great in this sense because they destroy the “I”. The consciousness is not an “I”. The ego cannot recognise itself, it follows from the biblical saying, “the darkness did not recognise the darkness”.

To separate from every ego is a slow awakening and to be awakened is to be able to separate from every “I”.

End (190).
