The Spirit Within does not want to block the ego

"Reality is simply loss of the ego. Destroy the ego by seeking its identity. Because the ego has no existence, it will automatically vanish, and Reality will shine forth by itself in all its glory. This is the direct method. All other methods retain the ego. In those paths so many doubts arise, and the eternal question remains to be tackled. But in this method the final question is the only one and is raised from the very beginning. No practices (sadhanas) are even necessary for this quest."
—Sri Ramana Maharshi World Wisdom

Comment on the above quote:
The ego stands for the material world and as such to rid the body or mind of the ego is to block or even murder the Body, but more than that, blocking the ego blocks your chance to evolve to Godhood. The Spirit Within does not want to murder the ego, it wants to activate the ego and the body to evolve to Godhood.
