Imagine standing in front of an infinite mirror. Every reflection reveals you, each layer unfolding further. Now, replace that mirror with God. This mind-bending paradox of "us in God, God in us" is the theological equivalent of an Escher drawing, endlessly...
If we think, those layers of ego is our body, and we are desperately trying to make our Ego beautiful and bigger and on top of all. but, its something within that is us and living in this body, who that is? who that thing is which is hiding behind the ego and trying to show something different than its existance?
The ego is like a Russian nesting doll - layers within layers. But who's doing the searching? The seeker is the sought. The thing 'hiding behind ego' is just another ego-construct searching for itself. Stop looking for what's hiding and notice what's already here, obvious and unchanging.
