Here are my observations of relationship with the self.
You are a compassionate and highly responsible individual, ever ready to extend a helping hand to anyone you perceive as in need, often at the expense of your own interests and life. This is an illustration of empathy that can be detrimental and destructive to many lives. Such a state frequently arises from upbringing that deprives an individual of the opportunity to receive rewards for their own actions while simultaneously imposing the burden of responsibility for those around them. Individuals like this often feel shame for their own success and productivity, influenced by the societal images they hold in their minds. This tendency is particularly prevalent among those from cultures that emphasize collectivist ideals.
The path out of this illusion lies within oneself, not in the external world. Our subconscious is governed by beliefs that lead us to experience various emotions, many of which are harmful. The solutions to your inquiries reside within you, not in the internet, in trees, in the sky, or beneath the earth.
Do you feel awkward in the presence of beggars or the “unfortunate”?
Ask yourself: “Why do I feel this way?” Justifications will emerge, explaining why you owe something to others.
Write down and analyze these justifications. Self-discovery is an incredibly engaging pursuit.
Life seems complex and unpredictable when we don’t accept what we receive from it.
Only a tiny piece of thought is enough to steal your attention from being here and now and change entire life.
I heard from somebody that humans’ first addiction is thinking. The world of thoughts is endless in all directions, and it causes feelings and emotions. Some of them are very addictive. It doesn’t matter if they are positive or negative.
The joke is that your way of thinking creates your reality. Most humans keep their focus on thoughts that lead to worries and fears. They imagine the future and create fear, or they stick to the past and regret it. Any of these two ways of thinking has a pretty negative effect on life.
Staying in these conditions for too long is dangerous, and it leads to deep inner conflict that becomes an external reality with war all around it. That’s why someone said, “Stop the war inside, and you won’t see it outside”.
May love be with you!

Fears, resentments, hatred of someone—this is all stagnant mental and emotional garbage. These are those parts of you that should have manifested themselves in certain situations, but you listened to your mind. You hid the emotion and pushed it deeper, where it had already taken root over all these years of living in you. It turned into a conviction and an automatic reaction to a certain type of situation.
Perhaps you were an inquisitive child and one of your close relatives told you everything to devalue any of your manifestations, even if it was a joke, and you, being inexperienced and incofident, took it and believed it, or took it and swallowed resentment or anger.
Now you are 30+ years old, and you notice certain patterns and cyclicalities of your ups and downs in the basic components of life: health, wealth, love, and happiness.
You start trying to find out the problem with the help of all sorts of psychological and spiritual practices. What is wrong with you? Why do you have a constant troubles in some areas of your life?
As a result, you find in yourself an eternally ongoing dialogue with someone you have been upset about or angry at since childhood. After decades, you still have this conversation in you, and maybe even your offender is no longer alive, but you still subconsciously look for him/her in everyone with whom you communicate.
The pity fact is that you find the offender even in those who are absolutely different from the one with whom you often have an internal dialogue all these years.
You are like someone who sees hallucinations, and you are convinced of the authenticity of your illusory vision.
Accordingly, any person in this case who interacts with you will experience an undeserved attitude towards themselves, which will lead to the breaking of the connection between both of you. For you, this will also cause a certain type of misunderstanding and disappointment, first of all in yourself.
Here, you will have to have a serious conversation with yourself. Perhaps it will even be very emotional and supported by “special effects” in the sensations of the body.
It sounds interesting, isn’t it? What to do, then?
If you are sincerely interested in my answer, then it means that you definitely haven’t be sincere with yourself; you haven’t spoken to yourself honestly, without any hypocrisy to which you conditioned, having identified you with your environment and pleasing it. You have ignored or suppressed your own feelings that are opposite to the imposed belief.
Carl Jung called these shadows; Eckhart Tolle called them the pain body, In different traditions, they are called demons or informational parasites that live in the psyche.
The most exciting fact is that all of them are you—those parts of you that want your love. So give yourself some love! What is the problem? Are you asking “how”? It’s simple. Love yourself.
May love be with you!

You have been born into the world in a technological and universal suit—a body that recovers itself if damaged. It can move quite deftly in space and easily adapt to almost any condition. Your body is recharged during sleep and also from the fruits of the surrounding world.
We shouldn’t ignore the fact that this body is served by a very complex device called the mind, which is a quantum computer. It is what makes reality tangible, helping the body navigate space and make decisions based on natural or acquired programs.
After all, you must admit what a perfect device you, I, and every person temporarily have.
Somehow, most humans choose to destroy this body by letting the mind take control of life in it.
If the mind is only a mechanism or tool, how can it decide what is good for life? If the body and mind are a kind of device, then who controls this whole mechanism and assigns tasks to the mind and body? Is this you? Who are you? Who am I?
May love be with you!

Rules are a very important component of any collective.
Rules help people understand the boundaries of everyone who is nearby in order to balance the principles that guide us when interacting with those with whom we have to share everyday life.
Another question is whether fanatics and greedy individuals distort the meaning of the rules and bring suffering to themselves and others without realizing it. Everyone has their own special view of the world, life, and other things, which should be the way it is.
After all, the process of self-awareness through interaction with other people is interesting. You can look at the interaction of two people as if two precious stones are flying towards each other at crazy speed, colliding, and then breaking and thereby acquiring new facets. As a result, each of them has consequences for contact.
When we come into contact with other individuals, we seem to clash in disagreements and thus sharpen our own edges. by breaking each other’s misconceptions (by the way, this is a very good exercise in determining one’s own boundaries) and thereby helping each other a lot, but not everyone is able to notice and understand this.
Here, it is important to know about safety precautions.
After all, some people are not ready to admit certain facts about their own delusions, and a person deeply convinced of something may experience unbearable pain, which can lead to all sorts of injuries. The adoption process should be smooth, as there is no rush.There is no time, but fortunately or unfortunately, you will have to understand the lesson.

All of the creatures in the universe have the right to choose a life path. It’s known as free will. It’s one of the most important rules at the physical and metaphysical levels of existence.
By the way, some of the creatures are trying to find a way to manipulate others to break this concrete rule. When they do it, it causes a big imbalance, but the entire organism of the universe is putting everything back into balance, and those who manipulate the rules of the universe are going to pay a fee, and it is impossible to avoid responsibility for anything that causes an imbalance. Nothing is for free; it might have a fee.
First of all, it is better to keep in mind that everything is in the right place and at the right time,” and when someone or something effects this process in a positive or negative way (from a human mind perspective), it could be the act of breaking the rule.
For example, when you really want to help a person but the person doesn’t ask for any help and you still try to help,” you might steal that person’s experience, which they have to go through, and stealing is an action to create imbalance.
What I am sharing here is my personal experience, which I later found very similar to what different spiritual and religious teachers are teaching about. Interesting fact: all the answers are within us; we just need respectfully ask ourselves and get any answer related to our own existence in this beautiful world in these incredible bodies.
May love be with everyone, and may all the creatures be free and happy in all worlds!
