Don't you think the illusion of self is a carefully orchestrated version of self that is perfectly in line with the divine self's intent?
If not, why would the divine self being the divine self and thus infinitely more powerfull and intelligent than the illusory self not replace it with such an orchestrated version?
And if so, why should we reject the image of self as illusory, if it is exactly as our divine self intents it to be? Are we pretending to be smarter?
I do agree that the image of self is not the divine self. And the goal of a spiritual man generally can be described as trancending the image of self and adopting the true self. But I think this is expansion of self, not replacement of self. And a natural process rather than something that the lower self should force or guide.
