I thought today I would share with you the words of those far wiser than I, and from whence I draw upon all that inspires me for my own less than stellar efforts at it. There are a few basic and ruthless enemies that assault us all and they come from invisible sources that motivate us in selfish enterprises. One of these enemies is Selfishness; an expression of The Personality in a separated mind. I'm not going to list the whole of the Negative Qualities that are common to the human state. Surely, you already know about them.
Most people, for reasons that escape me, are puzzled by the idea of Selfless Service. It doesn't make sense to a carnal mind. It doesn't make sense in a Material Culture. It makes you look like a fool and an idiot to the proud and arrogant, driven by appetite and selfish desire. I CAN explain this so that it puzzles you no more. Being able to forget yourself in service to others, brings a Joy and Serenity that nothing else can equal. Your separated self IS your burden and your cross. It is The Personality that is at the root of your suffering, and that suffering WILL NOT END until The Personality is sublimated and harnessed. You are either a servant of The Higher Mind or you are a slave of The Lower Nature.
