Me and my friends have criticized Christian mysticism for being too like Eastern mysticism before. I even adopt some of the thoughts of Max striner, an egoist anarchist. So I don't think ego is a bad thing. I think it can be quite wonderful and beautiful actually.If Union with God is what your responding to, I think it's just the opposite. Intent implies ego. The mystics instruct that for Union with God a person must go past ego.
People who speak of non-dualism but don't recognize the goodness of Multiplicity don't understand non-dualism well enough.
There is a great trend to attempt to destroy the soul, but I have not been destroyed yet neither do I comply with other people that think I should. When it comes down to it it's their word versus mine.
