 This might mean something different then what it sounds like. 'Ego Death' in some communities is referring to an experience similar to physical death and returning back to the human group collective consciousness. 
I did one about a year ago an its an amazing experience.

 Then I think the name concept should be changed, because it leads to misconceptions and confusion. Ego is a very important part of the Self.

 tbf, it is not the only first labeling humanity created which createa confusion and division. It happens everywhere. What matter is what it means to you with label or without. Ego death like nostr:nprofile1qqsd7zhdjt0lqr20lmdz7nxc3kt8m3tkk42fgq9e9tae3fqe4grwdagppemhxue69uhkzerjv5h8xaf0qythwumn8ghj7cnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qythwumn8ghj7cn5vvhxkmr9dejxz7n49e3k7mf0gxfavm explained is acknowledging the duality of human being. We have our conscious - the awake side of us and the subsconcious (or higher self). The former where the ego mostly reside. Ego death simply recognising that there is this side of us that will gravitate to the material things, the superficial stuff that you cannot take with you to the afterlife. The latter, is to transcend beyond your "awake" state, the knowing that you are more than the body you inhabit, but immortal that last: having mortal experience. ☺️ If want more, let me know. 👌
