It took me a while to understand that we are fated to be still takers, as my faulty perception of things gave me a first impression that we should become just givers. And besides, no matter how much I study, I’m still shocked at how this Ego guy makes such miseries in our lives. I don’t understand very well, how can something that is part of us, in this case the Ego, be something so petty and selfish.
I have been searching for a satisfying definition of “faith” for a very, very long time. I had goosebumps just reading the Section on the types of faith in “Attaining the World Beyond”, e.g., that faith is our perception – “a sense of the Creator”, page 24. That revealed to me that it’s not about the blind leading the blind. Rather, it is about using our ego altruistically – which opens our perception and grows our vessel. That realization helped to solve many concerns and difficulties I was having in my understanding of the spiritual world. At the same time, I see that I have a lot of work, due to “how much earthly, selfish reasoning” (page 26) that I have developed over my lifetime.
