In other words, Spiritual Ego... It is very tempting for the seeker of the truth to believe that the work of purifying the lower self is only necessary at the beginning of one’s journey. This is what I call the ‘syndrome of premature transcendence’. Many spiritual transmissions avoid confrontation with the shadowy aspects of the personality, and teach practices that often do provide the experience of unity. However, accessing this experience when there are still parts of the personality that are attached to the lower self can be dangerous, as it can generate a profound self-deception and hinder one’s evolution from that stage onwards. This is because vanity takes over the experience, and the person loses their chance to purify precisely what is preventing him or her from completing the process towards enlightenment. Sri Prem Baba
