MANTRAM-5. { Method  of  Self-Realisation }

Discussion-4. "This  alone  is  the  bridge" ......."ego  being  the  awareness  conditioned  by  our  mind  and  intellect".....

Across  the  ocean  of  life,  across  mounting  waves  of  the  ever-changing  inconsistencies  in  the  welter  of  the  delusory,  finite  world  of  plurality,  "this  alone  is  the  bridge" to  the  shores  of  immortality.

So  long  as  we  have  not  realized  the  Self,  the  sense  of  infinitude  and  imperfection  will  choke  us  and  in  order  to  realize  the  Self,  the  way  is  to  relax  completely  from  our  activities of  cognition  of  the  worlds,  both  without  and  within.

In  short,  the  mind  and  intellect  should  be  transcended.

In  other  words,  the  ego  is  to  be  eliminated;  the  "ego  being  the  awareness  conditioned  by  our  mind  and  intellect".

To  transcend  the  mind  is  the  same  as  to  "SURRUNDER  THE  EGO".
