Notes

The automobile metaphor emphasizes the fact that the vehicle belongs to Self. In order to be considered a fully functioning vessel, the physical unit must be responsive to and aligned with the nature and intent of the higher Self.

The metaphor works best when using a modern self-driving vehicle with artificial intelligence. In this case, the AI represents the Bodily Ego, the car represents the Physical Unit, and the driver represents the Spiritual Ego.
