'A major part of 'waking up' is becoming aware of "memetica ecologica." But as all-encompassing and absorbing as memetica ecologica may be and is, it only represents a "positive" and cannot ever encapsulate "the negative."

XJ, p. 95 'The ambiguity of the ego consists in the fact that something that is a part of the world can stand over against the world, and even "possess" or be correlated with the world.'
