unrelated to dyjanos question to barrynu. i was just reading the link.
copied from dyjanos link
"Also, when I don't over-work (especially mentally), there is a subtle flow of bliss buoying up my heart--the ananda of the Hindus, and the joy which Christ promised. Nevertheless, as I say, it takes some getting used to and can feel like psychic death, in many ways."
this person is in the process. in the process based on my experience there are many things that can stand in the way. and it for me also felt like a death. during the process the mind, circumstances, and emotions can stop the flow. i think thats where everybody gets concerned about the ego.
once the bliss has worked its way through the mind and emotional body then the idea of it being about the ego gets lost. cause there is no longer a barrier between bliss and you. you are that in whatever the context.
im not sure if strategy or concerns about the ego helps or not. it probably does though during the process. like meditating helps. slowing everything down to allow the experience of bliss.
its probably different for everybody. for me it was about releasing emotional baggage and memories to make room for the bliss. at some point it takes over on everything. perhaps doing an ego strategy would work the same. i dont know?
i havent read through the whole thing on the link. i just saw where he or she was at in the process and wanted to post the context of the experience that i saw. and make some comments about it.
