It is indeed more fluid and resilient than the ego. It is the failure of the ego to listen to the inner voice of the subconscious that causes many difficulties. The ego would wish the subconscious out of existence. It does not want a partner. It wants to master the entire personality.

I can then, therefore, enter the limits of your psychic comprehension. This is a very simplified version, but I must, so to speak, therefore journey through the various areas of Ruburt’s whole self, or inner self, until I reach a point where entry into your consciousness is possible.

Your psychic energies help him make these translations. At times you join together to enlarge your psychic environment, allowing me to come within its limits.

This does not mean that the personality must be completely swept away by an emotion, though this is what such an ego fears. Emotion replenishes even the ego. Emotions demand resiliency, and resiliency is both the result of spontaneity, inner assurance, and discipline. All this is action, for the personality itself is composed of action, and is constantly changing. This is action, therefore, delighting in the expression and form of itself.
