I rarely answer questions because I do not have the answer.
However in this case I would say 'yes'. :-)
Ego can be destructive and counter productive (to our and others well being)
or it can enhance and empower.
I get a sense that many people here are presently intrigued by the
(symbolic) energy of Shiva (the destroyer). The consequences of working with
such energies are - let us say 'dramatic'.
In most cases it is much safer, kinder (to oneself) to bring out and enhance
our positive attributes - THEN we can look on the demonic and Love it.
I guess you knew that . . .

The analogy of music is interesting one much used in Sufism.
For me words themself have this intuitive, free form that is more important
in effect rather than literal meaning.
It is this flexibility of language that allows us to
move from real
to paradox
to impossible
to EMOTION
and even the s p a c e
in between word that people equate with a symbol for spirit.
Not in any order or disorder but rather where the flow takes us . . .

I have to go soon. I am glad to have been here for a short while.
Be nice to everyone
Your friends will Love you
and your enemies - I am sure you have none - will be enfuriated . . .
and if you can't be nice
then why not learn (free classes available everywhere . . . )

Be Well
