Even Just Thinking Negative
When we just even think, let alone speak about ourselves in a negative way, thinking things like: how we are really this and that bad and that is not at all what others see, that we are in capable, worth little, know nothing, can't do this and that, fail at this and that, a liar, a dreamer the list goes on... We can be 100% sure that self-compassion is behind this because pride by itself would never allow this.
In a case like this self-compassion taps into what pride hides from itself and others and exposes it. Feeling that it is doing job at ruining ourselves.
Why It Does What It Does?
Self-compassion does this sort of thing to avoid reprimand and to extract compassion from others. Self-compassion is about getting compassion for ourselves through others. It is set-up in relativity, using others as a reference point. Really the best thing that you can do for a person who is pitted against this ego is to ignore them, so that they can fabricate the real self-compassion and become independent of using others.
This of going against ourselves in view of others is its main method of extracting compassion which it seeks out as compensation for having failed and lacking the true compassion for oneself.
Conclusion
So it gives us a way to know ourselves more intricately in our pride, but if one identifies with it, it strengthens the ill-will vice of self-compassion. If one can observe this negative voice of self-compassion and take good notes and not identify and ask our Divine Mother to dissolve it we can do some good work on ourselves.
End (2963).
