Why do wanderers have low self-esteem

[zenmaster]

As Ra said, 'ego' is a term which has become distorted due to misunderstanding of the 'human condition'. It used to simply mean 'I'.
I agree that many wanderers have low self esteem. My guess this is probably due to the impropriety of the local yellow-ray 'support system'. That is, the social complex emphasizes certain aspects of 'self-to-self' which tend to be inharmonious. Be aware, however, that when one measures oneself against this social complex or identifies with it, and there is an emotional response, such as low self esteem, then there is catalyst available. The society is actually reflecting just that aspect of self that has not been accepted.

Many wanderers have come here for the opportunity to experience 'low self esteem'. Once the particular distortions which give rise to low self esteem are acknowledged and accepted, then there is no emotional reaction.

Low self esteem can be self-destructive because this condition can never view others and self in an accepting manner. And when others and self can not be accepted, there must be a projection put in place in the meantime. When this projection ultimately fails, there will be disappointment and anger - and the cycle continues, on and on.
