In order for one to realize ones “self,” one must first accept that they have a self. The self is a code word for ego. In order for one to come to that realization, one must first realize that their journey to self-discovery is rooted in ego, the one thing in this world which is blocking all of us to realize our reality.
Your journey to self-discovery is rooted in ego. When one arrives at discovery they will have abolished the idea of “self.” The reality is that one must first use their ego, recognize their ego and then destroy their ego. Ego when treated like a blanky which one carries around at all times is suffering. Ego when treated as a favorite material item still creates suffering. Ego treated like a gust of wind which begins to arise, is noticed by the person and allowed to pass through the person, like the gust of wind that blows through a canyon, is the goal of the journey.
