And that the self is something to be transcended, a common trope in spiritual philosophy? I've seen a notion of selflessness popping up on the forum and it would be interesting to see how this is interpreted.
It's all about the context Adonai. The self that is spiritually transcended is the "little I" or the human ego. The universal "I" is all things.
Consciousness is perspective. The source of all distortions is the limit of that perspective.

Raw consciousness is all things. That is the base of all existence.
