I am digging deep into this path to enlightenment and the thought occurred to me this morning before I got out of bed. Is this just another Ego distraction. My ego ofcouce had a valid argument. My ego asked “If we are all Oneness or God then let me do my job of protecting this body until it dies - you are eternal and will go on into infinity so time is irrelevant - this enlightenment doesn’t matter either way after the body dies because then all body and mind is dead and your spirit, which is you, will be free. What’s the point of enlightenment while the body is still alive. Is this not just another Ego Trip to see if you can make enlightenment before the body dies while the majority never try or simply fail.”
