ahh i see. i sorta mixed up some things that you said.
you see, ego to me is a person's individuality, if god overtaken
your ego, you basically loses your individuality and every word you
say, does not belong to you but god. you, as in really your
individuality died.
that was my impression, so if buddha retains his individuality, it
doesn't seem right..
but anyways, u did answer my question i was trying to ask. which
means.. lets say a person who has given up his ego is like a drop
of water in the ocean of water. the ocean of water is in fact that
little drop of water now, and that little drop of water is also
that ocean of water.
