IO SONO MIGLIORE

.

Qual è il trucco impiegato dall’ego per sopravvivere? Qual è il primo principio che deve

difendere? “IO sono miglior.” Questa è la voce dell’ego, ben radicato dentro di te. Chiediti

onestamente chi è migliore, tu o tuo marito. Se dovessi sottoporti alla macchina della

verità, le oscillazioni del grafico si placherebbero solo se dicessi: “Beh, mio marito è

una brava persona, ma ad essere sincera, è chiaro che io sono più intelligente. E un dato

di fatto.” E molto difficile trovare qualcuno che dica: “L’altro è più intelligente di me; io

non lo sono poi tanto.”

Awareness and Balance of the Ego

 

The ego is a voice inside that directs people to be selfish, narrow-minded, limited,

addicted, hurtful, irresponsible, negative, angry, and hateful. The ego is a main source

of problems because it allows us to believe that others are separate from us. It is the

opposite of sharing and humility. The ego also has a positive side, as it motivates one

to take action. It is up to each individual to choose whether they act for themselves or

whether to also act in the well-being of others. It is important to be aware of one’s ego

and to balance the positives and negatives.

 

 

Willpower

 

Willpower. Self-control. Self discipline.  These are many names that all mean the same thing:

having the mental strength and attitude to consciously do the things you know you must do;

even when you don’t emotionally want to.

Higher willpower is associated with being happier, scoring higher on standardized tests and

earning more money.  Willpower is also highly correlated with accomplishing personal goals.

What you may not know however, is that willpower is a resource that you can call upon –

and at the same time, it is also a skill that you can  improve.

 

 

Sheikh Burhanuddin is a mystic and spiritual teacher of German origin.

When he was young the desire of his heart led him to Maulana Sheikh

Nazim Adil al-Haqqani Rabbani, the current Grand Master and the world

guide of the Naqshbandi Sufi Order. He initiated and educated him

to the traditional way of the dervishes mainly in Cyprus, where Maulana

resides, and during numberless journeys around the world.

Upon request of Maulana and in line with an old Sufi custom,

Sheikh Burhanuddin for nearly three decades teaches travelling with

tireless passion, sweetness and humor, through cities, nations and continents.

He loves to sit with with the searcher of truth, with the hearts in love of any

backgrounds and beliefs.

 

Sheikh Burhanuddin es un místico sufí, discípulo de Mawlana Sheikh Nazim al Haqqani,

actual Maestro de la Orden Sufí Naqshbandi. En sus charlas, conciertos y seminarios,

Sheikh Burhanuddin lleva a los participantes a reconocerse a si mismos mas allá de los

velos de la ilusión de estar separados del Todo. En la tradición sufi se dice que lo que nos

separa de lo Divino es nuestro ego, los velos de nuestros temores, expectativas, deseos y

depresiones, sobre lo que Sheikh Burhanuddin dice: “Déjalos caer y verás que el Amor

viene a tu encuentro, dándote la bienvenida. Olvídate de tu historia personal. I

nvéntate a ti mismo a cada instante.”
