Why is this a problem? I mean, I don't know nor do I even postulate on the supposed permanence of the soul (not sure I even believe in a discrete soul), but why is your current ego so important that it needs to worry about not existing? (I hope that doesn't sound rude; I promise it's not intended to be, but I can't find any more elegant way to word it.)

Who is this "I" you're talking about? Seriously. Who/what is behind the ego? Find that, and you'll find much greater peace.
For what it's worth, I doubt very much that anything is ever really "lost". Time is not linear, and everything that has ever or will ever or can ever exist does so all at once. We can't fully appreciate this because of the limitation of ego, but I've had experiences where I've seen things that make me know for sure that time is not what we think it is. To quote Dr Who, it's just a ball of timey-wimey, wibbly-wobbly stuff. It's not a nice neat line like a filmstrip. Everything is, all the time. Nothing is lost, nothing is gained, nothing is destroyed, nothing is created. It's all there, all the time, right now.
Mind you, that's only my perception, based on many mystical experiences that I've managed to retain and process into something I can describe in words. The real truth is a lot bigger and absolutely defies silly things like language to define it.
May the light surround you, may you be blessed. May the light surround us, may we be blessed. May love and light surround us all, and may we all be healed and blessed. And so it is, and so it shall be, now and ever after.
