Why does excessive pride become a toxic and corrosive influence? What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs210 views0 answers0 votesThe common assumption is that arrogance is really a cover for deep inner insecurity and doubt about one’s standing, value, and capabilities. So this implies that not all of the arrogant fully believe their own exaggerated self-appraisal. Are some of the arrogant self-aware of their arrogance, while others are genuinely clueless? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs246 views0 answers0 votesWe know that arrogance is a huge problem for beings in the physical, especially when cut off from intuitive feedback from others. But it seems that arrogance is also a problem for light beings, as exemplified by the fall of Lucifer and his cohorts. In the light, it would seem arrogance poses a problem because nothing is hidden. If light beings are aware of the thoughts of those around them they would know immediately if someone is out of alignment. Can such naked exposure to the assessment of others produce both humbling and incendiary effects?

It seems arrogance of any kind would be a good indicator of how far away or close one is in terms of divine alignment.

Resulting rage can be targeted at the self, others, or both. What is it about rage that can overwhelm humility, and even eventually extinguish it all together?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs213 views0 answers0 votesIt would seem that humility is in fact a striving for excellence, while rage is a striving for revenge. The lust for power seems to be a desire to give everyone a successful comeuppance—except for the self. Unchecked, it seems rage begets more and more rage until the mind is filled with nothing else. What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs228 views0 answers0 votesThe size of a setback can have a significant bearing on whether the result is humility or rage. For instance, a parking ticket legitimately earned, even if unintentionally, is likely to result in humility. But if the car is towed, impounded, and quickly sold at auction the next day by corrupt officials, the result is not likely to be “humility.” Some setbacks are karmic, but others are first offenses or unearned and undeserved insults. Humility seems to have the deck stacked against it in these situations.

It does seem the more arrogant the being, the less of this is taking place internally.

Hoffer wrote this intriguing passage on nature and compassion: “Nature has no compassion. It is, in the words of William Blake, ‘a creation that groans, living on death; where the fish and bird and beast and tree and metal and stone live by devouring.’ Nature accepts no excuses, and the only punishment it knows is death.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs243 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote the following: “The resentment of the weak does not spring from any injustice done to them but from their sense of impotence. They hate not wickedness but weakness. When it is in their power to do so, the weak destroy weakness whenever they find it. Woe to the weak when they are preyed upon by the weak! The self-hatred of the weak is likewise an instance of their hatred of weakness.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs242 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “When we are conscious of our worthlessness, we naturally expect others to be finer and better than we are. If then we discover any similarity between them and us, we see it as irrefutable evidence of their worthlessness and inferiority. It is thus that with some people familiarity breeds contempt.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs247 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “We associate brittleness and vulnerability with those we love, while we endow those we hate with strength and indestructibility.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs241 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “Patience is a by-product of growth – we can bide our time when it is time for our growth. There is no patience in acquisition or in the pursuit of power and fame. Nothing is so impatient as the pursuit of a substitute for growth.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs244 views0 answers0 votesHoffer wrote: “There are many who find a good alibi far more attractive than an achievement. For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life. Moreover, when we have an alibi for not writing a book, painting a picture, and so on, we have an alibi for not writing the greatest book and not painting the greatest picture. Small wonder that the effort expended and the punishment endured in obtaining a good alibi often exceed the effort and grief requisite for the attainment of a most marked achievement.” What is Creator’s perspective?ClosedNicola asked 3 years ago • Limiting Beliefs234 views0 answers0 votes
