If your identity doesn't exist, there is nobody to die. It's one of those things that mostly makes sense if you've experienced it. For the record I wouldn't recommend it. Premature annihilation of ego can lead to shunyatta poisoning, or emptiness poisoning. The ego causes issues for sure, but if you kill it before you cultivate a deep understanding of compassion you can easily become a genuine villain.

I mean. I get the ego death thing when I’m mushed out. The phrasing of your statement didn’t quite make sense. I’ve done boomers more times than I can count. I prefer acid. Less introspection.
