If your not too bothered about material things etc then it goes a long way.
Ultimately you are always complete - you just need to understand how that is so in a body that craves everything under the sun  .

Ps. when someone is smug about coming to this understanding ... they still don't get it....
It's not an actual achievement when the truth has always been written on your inside labels .

Hi Raziel,
Thank you for the kind words.
So sharing thoughts that what you share brings to me
Yes, for me the energy/Spirit that gives life appears eternal, but I am experiencing being this human being. With being human comes the thoughts, evaluations, perspectives, and all the rest.
Can relate not separate, just a part of it all.
Living in this world comes with the journey taken, IMO. So, it seems one does what one is able and willing to deal with it. How one is able or willing seems to involve how one either thinks it to be or observes it to be then goes from there.
Now what does all this have to do with what is termed "ego". Ego as far as I can gather is the part of self that plays into this. Not separate, just an aspect or focal point to work through and process what is perceived.
This is not to dismiss what you share. I actually in its totality can feel it is all interconnected and eternal in its own way. ( as best I can word it at present) The part I find interesting and helped me is exploring how thoughts play into this and what can be and is created by them, thus affecting ones view point of the self.
Yes it is with in us all and each add thier own color to the rainbow that shines.
Which in my book makes life that much more interesting. Even the shadows play with in the images we see.
What is made of it to the individual or not seems to be ego at play.
To embrace oneself opens the way to embrace another.
