[TWIST] Mirage of the Ego in the Present

The Wisdom Times

If you are in the future,
then ego seems to be very substantial.
If you are in the present the ego is a mirage,
it starts disappearing.
[Osho]

TWIST Comment: 'I want to be...', 'I need... ' are egoistic statements that ring in our minds prefixed with an 'I' when we think of the future. Whereas to be in the 'here and now' one needs no action. It's inaction that keeps us there. Inaction of both mind and body. When the mind actively thinks 'I am here and now', that indicates the ego is trying to take over the fleeting moment without letting us experience it.
