Souliner: The bottom line is this: three realities dominate man, his ego (which in truth is his lack of self esteem, necessitating grandiosity, for if one’s self esteem was good – they truly felt good about themselves i.e. cherished, loved, appreciated themselves, they wouldn’t need to feel good about themselves!) man’s instincts, we have many natural instincts, intercourse, which sort of dominates western media; but many others, like, survival, the need for companionship, the desire to win (sports etc. etc.) but most importantly, we have God in us, which is our innate essence, our innate desire that things should be compassionate, harmonious, the challenge of life is becoming the God in us, and not the ego, nor allowing our instincts to – like a GPS controlled by someone else – lead us down the path of aimlessness at best, in a deep dark dungeon at worst.
