Notes:
If we are not able to act without ego, is it better to not act at all?
- Unless we are conscious of the psychic, all our acts would have a touch of our ego.
How do we use our mind to overcome our mind?
- Knowledge of its limitations makes Mind conscious
- Dualities are elements of a greater reality.
- Movement of Mind into a higher consciousness
- There is nothing that Mind can know, that cannot be known better in the silence of the Mind.
What makes an act an act of the ego?
- Attachment to the result
- Absorbed in oneself
Effort to move away from the ego
- Simple Principle - Taking the other person’s point of view
- Every situation is an opportunity to make a progress
- Doing it for the Divine
- Infinite Perfection is an expression of the Absolute
- In whatever work you do, express the highest values you are capable of
- Example from ‘Dr.Thorne’ by Antony Trollope
