The Self Delusion

The Self Delusion falsely convinces us that we are a separate being an individual personal entity ego or distinct self. If we can break through your egoistic way of viewing the world and go beyond our mere intellectual understanding to bridge the gap between the ordinary distinction we make between ourselves as a knower of a world on the one hand and a world which is known on the other then we can find our way to the underlying truth that all religions hold in common. This requires that we be willing to give up our attachment to words and ideas that have less meaning in them than we think they do. Only then can we see through to the thing itself the divine nature of the Universe which is hidden by the Self Delusion. You can experience this for yourself simply by seeing through the foolish idea that you are a separate being an individual personal entity ego or distinct self.
