"The ego sometimes look at it as if it is an entity. But really it is just a form of unconsciousness. It appears to be an entity sometimes. It is never threatening. Never regarded as an enemy, never something you need to get rid of. It’s only to be recognized for what it is.
"So, and then the ego has fulfilled it’s purpose. It has taken you to that point of awakening.
"So, in order to awaken…humans have…were in the state of oneness with the source when they first came here and when they first lost themselves. They lost themselves in thinking, they lost themselves in the mind, they lost themselves in ego. And then they reached the stage where this state of being lost produces so much suffering that this dream of life becomes a nightmare, and they start waking up. This is the stage we have reached now. So as we wake up, we regain the state that we once had, that we lost. The state of oneness with life, oneness with source. But when we regain it, we regain it at a deeper level, because we are conscious of it now." - Eckhart Tolle
