Transparency

What happens, then, to the functioning ego, when a person goes through this process? Here it suffices to say that the ego identity becomes increasingly "transparent"; the person's experience depends less and less on unconscious self-images and object relations units. Thus the person comes into clearer, more objective contact with the environment, and as the experience of space is allowed, there arises naturally within that space a clear, full Presence, which without the rigidity and defensiveness of ego can assume ego's functions in a vastly more mature, objective and deeply fulfilling manner.
