How To Find Your Greater Self
If we practiced giving as much as we practice taking in our everyday life, we shall discover our true spirit-face behind the mask of false sense-identity. Through giving to others in need is how we can find our true greater self. In giving we may learn the sacred art of giving for the highest purpose in life.
Everybody wants the best seat and put his or her comfort first; but when we can find comfort thinking of the comfort of others then we are true givers. Unless we naturally realize our kinship with others, the innate tendency of humanity to bond together will surface only when we are threatened by catastrophe. We need not wait for calamities to bring us closer to this higher awareness of ourselves. We all intuitively realize how much we need one another for strength and support. Then, why are we living in a cold and indifferent world?
In an ego-centered driven society, we do not know how to reach out for something to make us more complete. Individualism leaves little room to care for people beyond the self. The worries, the troubles and other worldly impressions we receive during the day are negative vibrations calling out for our attention and these are nothing but mental traps from the lower nature of the ego. An effective method to escape from mental traps is, upon awakening, to get in the habit of daily reading one positive thought to keep in mind throughout the day; it will help you keep your thoughts positive and your mind clear.
Another way is to choose some quality you wish to develop --such as love or faith or humility, revolving your consciousness around that ideal most of the time. Immerse yourself in that thought again and again until it becomes part of your nature. You will be surprise when all of a sudden you find yourself having thoughts and feelings of pure vibration that neutralizes negative vibrations. We have the power to change any negative mental state that comes from the lower nature of the ego such as restless thoughts, anger, hatred, jealousy, habits and so on. The time will come when the mask of false sense-identity falls off and true spirit-face steps in. This is when the most fantastic journey for personal growth begins.
