The problem of living
The Mind region which lies next to the region of Heart is the sphere of ego, which having been crossed brings one to the level where ego assumes a rarefied state. Further on as one enters into the Central region, ego is transformed into identity. At early stages this identity is of a grosser type, but as one proceeds on through the successive rings in the region it goes on growing finer and finer till it assumes its absolute state, which might well be presumed to be almost an extinction of ego.

RINGS OF SPLENDOUR
The first five circles related with the sphere of maya as shown in the circle diagram in the ̳Reality at Dawn' extend up to the state of avyakta gati (undifferentiated state). The next eleven circles cover the various states of ego up to its final limit. The Central region which falls after the region of ego also comprises seven rings of what may for the sake of understanding, be denoted as light. One having passed through the seven rings attains the final state of complete Freedom.
