"Expert washermen wash dirt with dirt. A thorn is removed by another thorn. Poison antidotes poison....The very thing with which you entertain egosense enables you in the twinkling of an eye to realize the non-existence of the egosense." - VY
Mis-identification of the self with the body-mind is the root of all evil. Paradoxically, mind, yoked to jnana, can root out the conditioning that separates us from the unconditioned Absolute: "poison antidotes poison." The fever dream of jiva must end before the fever of illusion or maya or samsara can be removed.
