No, there isn't the one. The one would imply that there is a potential for more than one.

That's just logical nonsense. Who or what made you believe reality works that way?

Yep, because He’s a concept — or more accurately, a family of often more or less but not always related concepts.

Why isn't the ego a concept as well? What makes it real?

The Ego is a concept but it has utilitarian use or what you might call a "cash value" because it can be used in actual situations to raise consciousness about what happened or what you’re doing.  It’s a concept that may not be true per se, but it’s useful so we stick it in our knowledge grab-bag and bring it out every now and again to solve actual problems situations in contexts.

Everything, all the way down to the letter "a" and anything that letters or words are used for are concepts.

Not only that but anything sensed is also a concept, converted to "reality" by the brain. For example if you stand two people in front of a red door and one of those people is blind, that means in the blind person's personal world that door does not exist, yet to me and you it does exist, because our brains turn it into the concept of being a red door.
