The only thing that die in the universe is ego.
So it must exist so it may die.

So that what remains may exclaim . . .

" oh death , where is thy sting!"

It only seems to exist through the mind, the mind body organism does die, but not the Consciousness that it is within.

No pretense, I exist. "I" am and "You" are. Are you actually saying I and You do not or merely we don't see the entity there through all our pretending (Influences).

People pretend to know what an ego is but they don't, no-one really knows what 'I' refers to.

Lucky are the ones who die (ego death), before their bodyminds die.

It really depends what is meant by the ego.

I think my higher believes in eternal living, but within a different subset of incarnations.

Are not desires egoic in nature?
