Ego implies duality




Ego implies duality.There is only one ego, which is physical based. Yogic bliss is based on ego. Since yogi experiences bliss  as a person. But in spiritual sense, the bliss is non dual nature of the self. For illustration  the nature of the soul or consciousness, the innermost self  is like deep sleep. Deep sleep is unconscious bliss,where, the mind or duality is absent.When the mind consciously enters its non dual nature  in the midst of duality, through wisdom, it is  non-dual self-awareness. The ultimate reality or Brahman.

The yogic bliss is impermanent, as soon as yogi comes out Samadhi he is again in the clutches of duality. But the spiritual bliss is eternal, because it is based on the soul, the innermost  self.The author of the yogic bliss is ego. The author of the spiritual bliss is the formless soul or consciousness, the innermost self  .
 
Yogic bliss is part of the duality, for even if it did last all day, it disappears in  deep   sleep.  The soul, the innermost  self, was present before and after the Yogi enters yogic Samadhi. When he says or thinks anything, the soul or consciousness,the innermost self  is there first. It is always there whether he has got duality or not. Hence  yogic Samadhi cannot  produce non dual wisdom.
