I will remain just as existence keeps me. Its will is my will." Rajneesh egodoewant Then ego goes on growing, because the society needs you as an ego, not as a Self.

The ego can be made to adjust, but not the Self. The Self cannot be taught, the Self cannot be forced. The Self is intrinsically rebellious, individual. It cannot be made a part of society.
