TO GIVE OR TO RECEIVE?

It is easy to test the profanity or sacredness of a man: just measuring the intensity of his desire to want to receive or to want to give.

Whoever wants and needs something proves that he is needy, a poor beggar, who still needs props and crutches to support the faltering, insatiable and fragmented personality of his tyrannical ego, that he only wants and wants and that, however, afterwards satisfied, he continues in his distressing dilemma ... agonizing in search of new horizons, in search of something distant, but still unknown due to the multipolarity of the mind envisioned and anaesthetized by the externalities of life. He does not know that it is only when silence dominates the voids of agitated lives that the human soul will discover its Self in its intimacy, as paradoxical as it may seem, the ego is the worst enemy of the Self, but the Self is the greatest friend of the ego, and the ego, in the near or distant future, will recognize that it will lose sovereignty to the essential and divine Self.

But whoever freed itself from the tyrannical and selfish ego is free, rich in wisdom, morally and ethically sound, dispensing any need. When man's divine Self awakens and makes direct contact with the Infinite, his human ego functions as a channel for distributing the goods he receives from the Source; horizontally distributes what he received vertically.

The man who receives vertically from the Infinite, for being receptive, needs little help from his fellow men. This man lives almost without anything; the subsistence problem, which plagues the profane, almost disappears. The more man is someone through contact with the Infinite, the less he wants to have something in the world of the finite. He's a Theo-sufficient millionaire!

When Mahatma Gandhi died, he left as an inheritance, only a cheap watch, a fountain pen, a pair of glasses, two pairs of sandals, a loincloth and almost nothing else; for his daily subsistence, he needed only a few rupees. However, supervised by the hands of this poor man, immense fortunes passed through - millions and millions - passed through only and nothing he reserved for himself.

The ego is so insecure in life that it surrounds itself with all kinds of “life insurance” - and remains insecure in its life ...

The Self is so sure of itself that it needs no other's insurance; it lives in the fortress of its divine individuality, which guarantees perfect security, and for this reason, it does not need trenches and fictitious fortifications.
