Title: False Personality
Post by: Anonymous on April 16, 2011, 08:27:23 AM
I would like more information on overcoming false personality. How can we identify when we are living or projecting it, how does it manifest, and how can we mitigage against its overuse?

That's a huge question!

If there's one thing that's most important, it's to cultivate a state of being aware of what you're doing while you're doing it. This is somewhat similar to some forms of meditation, but it's done while you're awake and active. The big thing is to not get into arguments with yourself!

Once you can get some degree of awareness, other techniques can be quite useful, but awareness of what you're actually doing while you're doing it is, for many people, the starting point.
