There were studies done with Alzheimer's patients and higher states of consciousness. The researcher found they could not reach higher states because there was no solid I. No platform to stand on or, leave from, or come back too. We may be able to leave the ego in altered states of consciousness or through meditation but it is always the ego we go back too. We say "I was there" and if you're able to experience these states your ego may say "I, the enlightened one was there" Someone who knows, knows this is a dance with identify. The ego follows us up the floors taking on new roles. You can never leave it. Just like a knife cannot cut itself, or fire cannot burn itself you cannot know the godhead.
