When the false self dies—the ego, the old creature, the constructed personality, the illusory self, the separate independent idea of one’s self, the man of sin, the son of perdition, the natural man, the carnal mind—when this is seen for what it really is, when it is revealed in truth, when it is put off, taken out of the way, when it is crucified and passes away, then the true Self is revealed in glory.

It is resurrected, reborn, awakened.
It is Christ-Buddha, which redeems One from suffering.
It saves and liberates the One from illusion, delusion, deception, and error.
This Self is infinitely greater, truer, eternal, good, beauty, light, life, love, selfless, simple, even as a little child.
It is the Kingdom of God and of Heaven.
It is the Church of the Firstborn.
It is Eternal Law.
It is Eternal Life.
It embodies all things—it is in all things and through all things.
It is the Incarnation of God.
It is One with God, in God, as God.
