The high state of the fiery seed when it can already affirm itself without egoism. Thus the Fiery Gates are opened when not only is egoism burned away but a worthy evaluation of self is achieved. Only then can the spirit verily bring its sole heritage to the altar of Light. (FW I, 602)
The conception of “I”, Self-consciousness or Self-identity; the “I”, egotistical and mayavic principle in man, due to our ignorance which separates our “I” from the Universal ONE-SELF Personality, Egoism. (TG)
