It is not the ego, which is blocking Self-realization. It is ignorance that is blocking Self-realization.+

It is not the ego that is blocking Self-realization. It is ignorance that is blocking Self-realization. The ego is the product of ignorance.
It is impossible to eliminate the ego. You cannot go beyond the ego because you are the ego. The ego is the very basis of the world in which you exist. It is impossible to eliminate the ego.
Remember: ~
People talk of getting rid of the ego, but it is impossible to get rid of the ego. The ego is the very basis of form, time, and space.
Without the ego, form, time, and space cease to exist. Without the form, time, and space, the world in which we exist ceases to exist.
Thus, a perfect understanding of ‘what is what' is required to get rid of ignorance.
Without getting rid of ignorance, the form, time, and space prevail as a reality.
One has to get rid of ignorance, not the ego, because the ego is the product of ignorance.
Just by saying let there be ‘oneness’, the diversity will not vanish. Without Advaitic wisdom, ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of ignorance, the dualistic illusion (the world in which you exist) prevails as a reality.
Trying to get rid of the ‘ego’ is like trying to get mangoes from a coconut tree. The truth is not imagination. Ornamental words may give satisfaction to a certain mindset, but they block one from realizing the ‘Self’ hidden by ignorance.
The ultimate truth is the fullness of consciousness. There is nothing apart from consciousness, because the whole universe is nothing but consciousness: ~Santthosh Kumaar
