With a finger in my "I" .....................

I saw this in atemple in Kyoto:

`The height of delusion is when the ego detests itself.`

yes and in order to combat it.. they try to gain more ego and pride because they believe it is what is lacking. this creates hatred, division.. and doesn't solve the problem well.. but makes them lash out easier.. and makes them defensive.

I been through all that

C. G. Jung maintained that we need strong ego boundaries before we proceed to the necessary task of dimantling them!

the eunuch should not take pride in his chastity...

in otehr words just because u never been tempted doesn't mean you know what this temptation is, nor should you be proud that you havent experienced it..

to conquer something fully like porn or sex or w/e u must experience it first is my thought

to experience the worst of it.. is to know what it really is to have the best

Sting said in an interview,

" Those who believe that they can do no wrong are the most likely to do so.
It's those who recognize what evil they are capable of who overcome the impulse."
