   To think that you are a mere human being amounts to demeaning yourself. You are the embodiments of God. Develop faith, go WITHIN and become God. When you think to yourself, you say… it is “my body”, “my mind”, etc… When you examine yourself in this manner, you will realise that none of these are…

   A relevant quote to tie up your post from the Dhammapada:
   “These teachings are like a raft, to be abandoned once you have crossed the flood. Since you should abandon even good states of mind generated by these teachings, How much more so should you abandon bad states of mind!”
   
   Attachment is the root of Dhukka, and so even this attachment to your ‘ego’ as you put it, as well as to this concept that you are part of ‘God’ is not truly the Dharma. It is both, and neither, and one and the other. The Dharma is ineffiable, silent, void, and mysterious.
   
   Much like the structure of a Koan illuminates the paradox of language and logic, I hope these words on the nature of Sunyata and Dharma help illuminate further.
   
   This being said, it is not a correction to your enlightening post, but simply an addition to the great truth found within your words.
   
   Namaste
