The ego and Overself...

Everything he then does is done by the ordinary personal self alone, out of and in harmony with the Overself, or his higher individuality.

In thus working together, the divine presence supports the ego's presence, but the ego is put in its place and kept in harmony with the higher individuality.

If this is what people mean by killing out the ego (which is really killing out its tyranny), there could be no objection to the statement.

But to assert that it is not functioning at all is silly.
