By understanding that having an ego is a meme.
You're looking at the world like it's anywhere but inside your skull.
Your "ego" might as well be the feeling of bark on the trees, since that's only an interpretation of a reality that isn't there when nobody can observe it.

Mushrooms

sex, only way, lose yourself in the pleasure you give to your partner and the pleasure you receive from your partner, hermitage brings ego to critical mass, it implodes upon itself, the body and mind atrophy under the crushing weight of self
