May I humbly suggest you re-read "Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism", particularly the part about ego. You seemed to have misplaced the message that has resonated with students for nearly thirty years.
You couldn’t explain what that means if your life depended on it. ‘Ego’ in Buddhism isn’t anything like the Freudian definition you’re obviously using. But then you can’t even explain what you meant in your own posts. LOL
