Hello Wei
Breakfast at Tiffanys? Makes me think of Liberace. Now there was self-importance!
One thing I have learned in this area is that many of us have powers. For many years I did not understand what was happening to me. Now that I know what some of those powers are, I also know that self importance, among other cultural overlays, block those powers. I have found that when my mind is silent and clear, they operate at their best. If I were younger, I could devote more to that goal, broaden those powers. What will be, is. No regrets. Just knowing the answers is quite fulfilling.
Another topic: For some time I was skeptical of Depak Chopra. Lately, I have been receiving weekly updates from his site, through care2. I have found his remarks to be on target more often than not. But the real reason I bring him up, is that his most recent posts have referenced 'the Second Attention' , in a way that seems not far from what is here.
I am absolutely convinced that these powers are a human birthright, much lost to the FI
Yes, you have identified the warrior's struggle. And, it is good to wrestle with IB's and FI's rather than angels and demons, for we remove dualism from the issue. Predators. I have no gripe with snakes, skunks and bears! I know my place, they know theirs, and attempt impeccability when on their turf! No need to be unnecessarily controlling, angry or deadly.
