even the impression that... you have reached that point.
Then it is all right. But until then, there is still a little rem-
nant of ego somewhere;usually it is the part which looks on,
the witness that looks on.
So do not assert that you have no more ego. It is not accu-
rate. Say you are on the way towards having no more ego, that
is the only correct thing to say.
CWM 3: 240-242
The ego and the psychic being
You say “the Ego and the physical consciousness are not me.”
It is your soul who can say that in truth. Certainly your soul is not
the ego and the physical consciousness; but the mental, the vital
and the physical beings have been formed by the ego and it is
through the ego that they express themselves, it is through the
ego that they get in contact with the others and react to these
contacts.
This is the difficulty, this is why it is almost impossible to get
rid of the ego without a divine intervention. ...
The ego cannot be destroyed, but it can be overcome by a
constant and complete separation from it. This is the necessary
preparation I spoke of. ...
Now to make you fully understand, I shall explain something
more. All the elements of the human consciousness which gather
and organise themselves around the soul form, through thou-
sands of lives, the psychic being. This psychic being when well con-
stituted becomes the conscious intermediary between the soul
and the physical being. ...
When the psychic being gets this liberation, it feels the ego
and the physical consciousness, merely as movements of the uni-
versal nature outside itself, quite foreign to itself; and these move-
ments can no more affect the psychic being in any way.
