Merle,
Negative. Ego will not let itself be dethroned by ITSELF.
Ego cannot step aside while it is before itself TEACHING.
THAT is Impossible.
I'm sure you see it, now that you admit it. ;-)
And that's why a teacher is necessary, if one is at all "interested" in this
business as a transformation, and not just as posturing, play-acting, or
dilettantism.
But, not to put too fine a point on it: I know that not everyone will pick up
and go to a teacher.
Better that we leave them happy, then, however we can.
