I just wonder if the movement of kill the ego, is not that far from the idea of original sin?
That you are born with this part of you that is bad, and it needs to be cleansed.
I truly believe that your ego when serving the soul is one of our biggest allies.
If we where to Harness it's passion, yearning, energy, even greed, in service of our higher in my opinion we would get even further. I think it is a tool, and yes without a good bridal it can run wild like any strong horse, but I see it as a tool and not something to kill or be purified from.
What do you think? This is not a rhetorical question, I am really intrested in hearing other perspectives.
