Q: Could you please explain the journey from the ego to the self? How to accomplish this easily?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: If the ego makes the journey, it will say, ‘See I made the journey to the self’. Then, it has not even moved an inch. It is not a journey from one to the other. If you find that you have an ego, just let it be there. Why do you worry about it? Don’t try to meddle with it or erase it. The antidote for ego is to be natural, simply natural.

And you cannot get out of the self. Self is the consciousness that everything is made up of. That is you, and everything around you. You say ‘I’, that ‘I’ is made up of the self. Your body, mind and everything is made up of the self. Self is like space. You can never get out of it, and you can never do anything about it.
