Solution To the Ego Illusion

1. Avoid Manichaean Concepts and Boxing - making categories - of Human Beings 

2. Watch your thoughts intensely, but kindly: judge no one, not even yourself. Enjoy the drama. We are actors anyways (Ask Shakespeare, or Hindu thinkers who flesh out the concept of Maya and "Krishna Lila.") Do STOP obvious evils.

3. ACCEPT: you are no better - or worse - than other human beings.
