Two Points
In this post I want to introduce two characteristics of
jealousy.
In the post (1979) that follows this one, I want to present a
practical point of work that counteracts these two characteristics, and therefore
helps in the dissolution of jealousy.
Starts with a Knock
Feeling jealous always starts alarmingly after we have been
hurt, disappointed, tricked, disillusioned, jolted etc. etc.
Jealousy really only starts when a psychological debt
exists.
It is very important to work upon balancing, resolving i.e.
dissolving this debt. Seek compensation in comprehension rather in resentment and
jealousy.
See, the complex of 'less' is inherent in jealousy. |
Characteristic Feeling of Inferiority or Less
Carrying this debt inside inevitably leads to the very characteristic
feeling of jealousy which is the feeling of ‘less’ or ‘inferior’. Where we feel
low and angry at the same time.
The low feeling is mostly the feeling of ‘not quite being good
enough and the other is better’, and the angry feeling is mostly the feeling of
“they (the one we are jealous of) don’t deserve that affection, what have they (the
one we are jealous of) done that is so good?, What is so good about them?, are
they just trying to hurt me?”.
Conclusion
These are very critical points to address when working on jealousy.
The next post (1979) gives a way to work the last characteristic – feeling less.
End (1978).
