Ananta guides a seeker to recognize that the ego is a non-existent concept and that the one who fears identification is just another mental construct trying to use spiritual teachings as a defense.

✦

The ego is never there. Because I believe myself to be a cat doesn't make me a cat.

The mind takes that which is meant to attack the ego as a defense for the ego itself.

Who is the one that is scared of identification? Can you survive without any belief?
