How does the traditional concept of "ego" relate to the densities?

[sjel]

Know who you are, let your ego speak, but then let it be quiet. Simply see the balance between too little and too much. We are aware that many Eastern religions encourage the total abolishment of ego. This is all very well and good in a culture where the holy are fed. In your particular culture, the holy are normally considered quite insane, thus, retain your protective coloration and your ego [as] part of that. For you cannot function unless the society perceives you as normal. But know in your heart who you are. And let not your ego tell you that you have limitations.

Great points Jeremy. I've read several variations of the above concept in just the last week - the fact that the Western and Eastern spiritual cultures are fundamentally worlds apart. To blindly apply one's system to the other culture is absurd and can be self-destructive (especially applying East to West, where they often advocate sitting meditation and mindful inactivity for the majority of the day- that simply would not work in most of America!

4th density beings still very much have egos. Even sixth density beings have egos:

"We cannot say what is beyond this dissolution of the unified self with all that there is, for we still seek to become all that there is, and still are we Ra."

So Ra technically isn't enlightened??? :O And perhaps could be considered less spiritually evolved than Nisargadatta?
