Ego is simply the exclusive mixture of impersonal Consciousness, which is seeing and understanding these words, with a single body and mind. It is an activity of Consciousness or, more accurately, the shape that this impersonal Consciousness takes from time to time.

Therefore the Peace and Happiness that are inherent in Consciousness are also inherent in the ego, in the alleged separate entity, in the same way that gold is inherent in the earring. In fact we could say that ego was the taste of Peace and Happiness itself, mixed with the belief and feeling that Peace and Happiness are not present.

It is the earring saying to itself, “I long to sparkle with the beauty and brightness of gold,” without realising that that is already precisely where its existence, its beauty comes from. It is already shining with gold. In the same way, every experience is only the presence of Consciousness shining.
