The light of awareness dissolves the ego. See it when it awakens. Spot it once it arises. Then realize that it's not who you really are. It's something that you have. Something that's created by you and the others. You can follow it, yield to it, then suffer. Or choose to just observe it. See it as a part of you. Accept that you have it. And choose to stay connected to the spirit, the one that's closest to who you really are. Then it dissolves in peace.
