This man was in tune…check it out…
“It is not the tyranny of the ego which is to be removed most of all–although that is a necessary part of the Great Work, nor is it that the ego must be uprooted and killed forever, although its old self must surrender to the new person it has to become. No–let it live and attend to its daily work but only as a purified being, an ennobled character or quietened mind, an enlightened man–in short, a new ego representing what is best in the human creature. He will still be an “I” but one that is in harmony with the Overself, a descriptive name that ought to be kept and not discarded. So do not in your writings attack the ego as so many do, but lift it up to the highest possibility.”
He’s very much in line with Yogani’s portrayal of the ego as a vehicle to enlightenment. 
Indeed 
I’m almost done reading The Short Path to Enlightenment. It’s very direct and authentic. A real gem!
Nice. I’m currently reading his one about his trip to Egypt. Love it.
Paul Brunton’s “Secret India” was one of the first books I read about yogis. Brunton’s memoir about his spiritual journey to meet his master Ramana Maharshi has always been a sourse of inspiration for me. Thanks for sharing, Bodhi Tree! 
Awesome, Blanche!
