I don't think the ego can be killed directly. By attempting to destroy it, you focus on it & ironically give it more power.
What you might want to try is starving it of it's sense of separateness.
Fight your internal judge & victim. These are the 2 aspects that the ego depends on for seperation. Comparison is food for the ego & also the thief of joy.
