The Lower Self

If you treat your lower self with affection, you will never be saved from it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those who are dead to their lower selves are alive with God.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those who are controlled by the lower self must serve it; those who control their lower self serve others.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One way to train the lower self is the resist its desires.  However, if you wish to resist, we know that we must not resist by opposing or suppressing it; for when we do, it will rear up somewhere else, seeking gratification of its desires.
