CHAPTER

How to Transcend the Ego

In sanscrit, chronic tension is the root of what we call the feeling of the ego. Ase: We are so hung up on this concept that it confuses us. Even in the proposition that it might be possible for us to feel otherwise. If you have no information about this at all and no words for it, don't try to get rid of them. Just be aware of what's going on in your head like it was clouds in the sky or the crackling of the fire. There's no problem to this. All you have to do really, is look and without naming, and if you are naming, never mind. Just listen to that."
