We've made ego into a mountain
"My friend, I am here to remind you that peace of mind, love and joy are your inheritance. Peace of mind, love and joy are the main attributes of the Godself. We all have a Godself, because we are simply our Godselves and nothing else. Everything else including our ego-self is an illusion we have created to help us live in the illusionary world. The ego is a speck of dust that we have made into a mountain. Yet still, what is even the highest mountain to the universe ... to All That Is? As the illusion that is the ego slowly dissolves in the light, so too will the mountain in time return to dust.
