Muy, muy bien, David. The way you explain it, along with the visual aid almost always confirms what I’ve recently been pondering. It’s reassuring to read or hear someone express similar (almost exact) spiritual insights! We’re gettin’ there! Thanks, as usual.

Agree regarding the ego. But is letting the ego go actually possible for the vast, vast majority of people?

David Gerken's avatar

Great question, Ken. And the answer is very important. Few are able to let go of all of the ego. BUT, letting go of some portion, whatever that is, is enormously helpful and healthy.

In other words, it’s not an all or nothing proposition.

Yes, this deeply resonates with me. I appreciate the concise summary and connections you made between these ideas. Different ways of trying to express that which is beyond expression.
