Letter To My Daughter V
On The Self
There was a movie in the seventies about aliens watching earth from the sky, they finally draw the conclusions that earth is run by cars, and that each car has a slave or two that drive it around, clean it, fix it, and feed it when hungry. We are always too preoccupied with “the Self” to really understand who we are. Our mind does not allow us to see beyond it’s comprehension. That is why it’s always easier to give advice to others than to help ourselves.
We are always forgetting that our soul is our clear link to a higher concept of the ‘us’ instead of the ‘self’ and so the ‘self’ needs to understand that it is part of a more important entity that is the ‘us’ — or the soul of the universe — only then will people start evolving to a new level of harmony. And only then will we evolve to a new quantum leap. To be selfless is not to forget about ones desire and aspiration but to pursue them in unity with others and earth.
