Defining I, Love, God and Ego

A woman asks for a definition for the words I, Love, God and ego. Rupert suggests that the name ‘I’ refers to awareness’s knowledge of itself. There is nothing in awareness because there is nothing in awareness other than itself. However, when awareness becomes mixed with the content of experience, that is the ego. Rupert uses the analogy of John Smith and King Lear to further elaborate. He then clarifies that I, Love and God are all the same. I is the pure self before it is limited being. God is the religious name for infinite self-aware being. Love is the recognition, the felt sense, that the essential being of each of is shared. We have different names because we talk about them in different contexts.
