I think it means ego is just a label for a thing in the world.
What exist itself is the truth.
Not the label.
The call for a try to define ego as a precise as possible ("as a mathematician") and in the sibling post from user blueprint probably shall make you attemt just this, but fail at it. I think the "ego" dies when you see what you are looking for in what it is. Not in words not in labels not in labels. Just become aware that your model-maker is trying to model the world that really is there. You are what you are beyond the modeling process.
What exist itself is the truth
How could you describe it? How could you speak of it? Doing so requires modeling it and therefore it is not the real thing anymore. Therefore you can not really speak about "it" without just referring to a experienced experience.
No one can speak of something they haven't seen as it is.
Trying to thinking about the "real" world behind and trying to grasp and feel and see it all at once as it is gives me funny tingly feeling in my stomach. But thats is probably not what the they mean.
One fun thing to consider: When there are no models no labels no boundaries no judgements, where does something start and where does it end? Does that even make sense? Objectively the real world is just what it is, one. No things at all. These are just models. The underlying world is still what it is. One.
- blueprint 8y agoMay I mention to you that I differ from your interpretation? > Objectively the real world is just what it is, one. No things at all. These are just models. The underlying world is still what it is. One. What is the answer of 1+1?
- xaedes 8y agoDepends, lets say 2. Math. Is it access to a real realm of reality or just a bunch of tools to help us make it in the world? Yea thats a good question. Looks like a question where my answer is probably "both".
- blueprint 8y agoI used mathematics as an example to give you a sense of what things in reality (truth) are like. People don't perceive what is in the world of the truth just by learning what exists there from someone who can see and say it. Nevertheless, if you learn and use the truth, such as in your work, you can get what you want. You just won't be able to confirm how much of the whole thing you can see, lacking enlightenment. By the way, everyone is in reality. So how can you say "access" to a real "realm" of reality? When you decide you have something to you want to know, ask me again.
