The Trap of Self-Introspection

Filed under: Beginning Your Journey, Spiritual Development — @ 7:56 pm

A common trap people on a spiritual path is one of self-introspection.
Self-introspection is not the same as self-observation, witnessing the
self or what Toltecs refer to as stalking the self.

  1. I fully acknowledge what you say about confusing self introspection with self observation.

    What I find hard is to observe self dispassionately without wanting making changes to what I see. It seems more to me that that observing without changing might keep you in a pattern forever.

  2. Greetings Dear Friend:
    As a spiritual person and writer, may I commend to you my book, Master of the Jinn: A Sufi Novel, a mystical adventure tale on the Sufi path of Love. I think you will like it.
    You can view the book and read an excerpt at http://www.masterofthejinn.com
    In the name of the Merciful, 10% of all profits go to charity.

    Peace and Blessings,

    Irving
