AN INVITATION TO MEN TO MEDITATE ON THEIR WORTHLESSNESS

What do we lie about?  How do we misrepresent ourselves?  Why do we misrepresent ourselves?

Often we are lying to convey value and esteem that we do not possess.  We lie about who we are, what we are, how qualified we are so that others will think well of us.  We are stealing other’s impression of us.  

We lie to lay calm to esteem that we do not possess.

Our worthlessness becomes a big part of our SHADOW.  We then do many things to keep this shadow piece of our worthlessness covered and camouflaged.  In extreme cases, as is the case with people with Narcissistic personalities, people go to extraordinary steps to maintain this denial of one’s worthlessness.

What if we steered directly into our worthlessness?  

This is a third chakra practice we can take on.  

Let’s face our worthlessness.  Let’s sit in it.  Let’s accept our worthlessness.  

What follows from there?

Do we die?  Do we disappear?  

What is left after we have relinquished the drive to establish our worth?  

What is left after we have stopped making efforts to convey our worth to others?
