“Every thing is God’s creation except the Ego”
There are infinite millions of perspectives, flavours and colours of One.
Ego, or the I call, or Ahamkara originates in One only, where else it can come from? But that ego is not ignorance. The sensual ego -- the awareness of boundaries and non-awareness of the unbroken awareness that perceives the boundaries, on the other hand, is ignorance.
Amma must have talked about ignorance. But you are trying a short cut.
Om Namah Shivaya
That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
