Check out the latest edition of-what is enlightenment- magazine edited by Andrew Cohen. The topic is ego-friend or foe. Unfortunately it will probably raise more questions than answers, but I found it fascinating. Some people believe that the ego must be strengthened before it is transcended. Other sages believe that it must be annihilated altogether, and they get down on pursuits such as TP. I don't know the answer to your question, but thought I'd add this.
