On Arrogance and Ignorance

1. Arrogance is a stance I take when I need to feel good about myself in a situation, at any cost
2. I try to be “better”, at least appear to be better, in a situation by comparing with others
3. Comparison of one image with another – my memory of me with my memory of the other!
4. Nothing can be more tragic!
5. This whole arrogance trip, springs from the “Ignorance”
6. Ignorance of being One with the Divine
7. And naturally of the absence of a real Other!
8. So ignorance gets a man to become arrogant!
9. Also diffident, excited, down, angry!
10. All states, which take one away from Love and Compassion!
