I search for a comparison, an illustration-where the issue of ego is like a puppy chasing its tail, where ego is less of a thing and more of a phenomenon of activity.
Our modern thinking conditions us to associate ego with the head, and thus it seems to regard ego as some permanent manifestation, a sort of center from where life is interpreted.
This description, position, as Mr C points out in this piece, has been with us for centuries as the official common sense explanation that actually explains nothing.
One can have experiences whereby this standard is hopelessly inadequate. Society however is intent on making itself immune to any such realization.
Ultimately the search and conclusion that ego, the body, the world is a state arrived at rather than something which intrinsically exists is the path of radical exploration.
There are times!
