Not with Bait but by Cutting the Supply Line
Every fisherman and hunter uses the technique of baiting,
where a small morsel of the prize fish or animal’s favourite food is carefully
placed on a hook or in a cage or in a specially chosen location to lure the fish
or animal so that it can be easily caught.

Lure Out the Ego so to Catch it (Observe, Study, Comprehend)
We want to do the same with our egos.
But the technique of baiting does not work!
We need to use the exact opposite technique, which is to cut
the supply line.
When the supply line to the ego is cut, it all by itself will venture out into the more observable levels of our mind to find food and opportunities
to take advantage of in our inner and psychical life. It needs to feed and reassure the validity of it’s existence.
Once Caught – Next Step is Eliminate
Here hunting and the mystical death or psychological dissolution
agree, once the animal has been caught, that is observed, studied and
comprehended it can be made useful. That is killed and sold, eaten, skinned,
stuffed etc. The same applies to the ego, once it has been caught we can ask for its elimination where it gives us back the essence that has been trapped in it, which is the
greatest gift to us.
