"If I cannot live with myself, there must be two of me"Eckhart Tolle
Starting with the above quote, we will discuss the concept of the self and we will have a look at the very popular practices of self-love and self-compassion.
There is the limited personal self and the true self, the transcendental self. Or in other words you have a self that can be seen and you have the sear. Fundamentally, enlightenment is identifying your true self, the sear. The shift from being identified with a small limited self to being identified with the transcendental self is the fundamental awakening process.
The process of evolution has these two phases: transcendence and inclusion. As an example, you have an atom, then the next stage of development transcends the atom, and that's the molecule - transcends means it goes beyond, it's more complex than the atom. And it also includes the atom. The same way molecules move into cells, the cells transcend molecules. They go beyond them, they have something greater in them then the molecules have. But they also include them, contain them.
Human stages of growth work just the same. So, the limited self has to be transcended and included. The true self contains it, is not separate from it. There is no separation at the moment of awakening, things become singular. Instead of managing multiples, now you are not managing, you just become singular, in alignment
The circle will continue with individual sharings and will close with Q&As.
