What do we mean by "me"?The self, the ego, the "I" means the idea, the memory, the memory, the conclusion, the experience, the different intentions, the constant effort to be or not to be, the accumulated memory of the unconscious, the racial, the group, the individual, the clan, the nation, and a whole series of things like that, are projected outwardly as action, or projected "spiritually" as virtue.Striving for all that is the "me." We must also include rivalry and the desire to be. The process of all this is the "I" and, when confronted with it, we know that it really is something evil. What does the "I" contribute to humanity?The "I" is the cause that divides people, the "I" encloses us in ourselves, their activities, however noble, separate us and isolate us. We know all that.What happens when the "I" is absent? The moments in which the "I" is not present, in which there is no sense of struggle, of effort, are extraordinary. And this happens when there is love.Does the experience strengthen the "I"? Yes, experience strengthens the "ego."
