    Ego Death: Losing Yourself to Find Freedom

    Melhor citação de Ego Death: Losing Yourself to Find Freedom

    “

    The ego isn't some evil thing that needs to be destroyed; it's a mental structure that helps us function. Ego death is not actually losing ourselves—it's losing our attachment to the illusion of being a separate self.
