Awaking to your life's purpose(part 2)

Remember about the book that mummy was reading earlier on??She is finishing up the book and she saw some parts where she feels that she can share.

Esther:This book is great.Its show out all the ugly sides of human ego and how one should overcome them.Often when you are reading,you will noticed that there are people whom you came across are like that too or maybe you yourself is behave like this.ITs time to change.

Extracts from the book Awaking to your life's purpose by:Eckhart Tolle

The ego needs others,but its dilemma is that deep down it hates and fears them.Jean-paul Sartre's statement "Hell is other people" is the voice of the ego.The person suffering from paranoia experiences that hell most acutely,but everyone in whom the egoic patterns still operate will feel it to some degree.The stronger the ego in you,the more likely it is in your perception that other people are the main source of problems in your life.But,of course you won't be able to see that. It is always others who seem to be doing it to you.
The mental illness we call paranoia also manifests another symptom that is an element of every ego,although in paranoia it takes on a more extreme form.The more the sufferer sees himself persecuted,spied on,or threatened by others,the more pronounced becomes his sense of being the center of universe around whom everything revolves,and the more special and important he feels as the imagined focal point of so many people's attention.His sense of being a victim,of being wronged by so many people ,makes him feel very special.In the story that forms the basis of his delusional system,he often assigns to himself the role of both victim and potential hero who is going to save the world or defeat the forces of evil.
Some people,however,driven by the ego's feeling of insufficiency and its need to have or be 'more',lie habitually and compulsively.Most of them will tell you a story about themself,their story,is a complete fantasy,a fictitious edifice the ego had designed for itself to feel bigger,more special.Their grandiose and inflated self-image can sometimes fool others,but usually not for long.
End

Actually i feel that we should pity the person who have all the signs above.Why must one want attention of people around??Lack of family love?No one give attention to them at home?Therefore wherever they go,they must make sure that they get all the attention?To the extend of bringing down others??
Living in a fairytale world in their own space that they have created thinking that they are the poor princess/prince tortured by the evil witch.
After reading this book,I have learn the different types of ego in human.It teaches us how to let go of them.The bad ones of course because not all egos are bad.

I have also learn that the most important thing in life is to be YOURSELF.Do not backstab or tell lies.(sometimes white lies are necessary)Because what comes around,goes around.People around have eyes who see who you are.Do not envy others for what they have.But be greatful for what you have now.Love your Family and Friends.
