We can take this attitude at times in certain situations, yet for some of us, this could be an attitude that is present a bit too often.
Where does this attitude come from?
I would like to say that it comes from a spiritual, ethical or moral fall.
It is an attitude that more often than not appears when things are faltering...
It is really an attitude from the "I" of self-compassion. Let's see why.
The "I" of self-compassion feels compassion for ourselves. However, the compassion it feels misses an important component.
The important component that is missing is the inner force to rise up and fight for a change in our internal state that will put us onto a course towards a positive outcome.
The missing component - the inner force to rise up - is a key part of the true compassion that the Buddha spoke so highly of.
True compassion means to impart this force of 'rising up', to others and to ourselves.
So when we have that attitude of: 'just let it fail" it is the false compassion or the "I" of self-compassion as we would say in Gnosis, thinking and speaking within and through us.
In conclusion, when we hear ourselves saying "Ah let if fail", counteract it with that inner force to rise up within ourselves and fight to change our internal state.
When our internal states changes within us to one of "now let's get up" we will care about what is failing and we will correct that!
That inner force to fight for a change in our internal state is a divine force that comes from our Atman - the warrior within us that is aligned with the forces of Mars, as Master Samael affirms.
