When occasionally my ego steps aside and my sense of ‘self’ dissipates, then there is a feeling of only wholeness.
Hi Seth,
Thank you for your answer.
Would you be able to give a short description of what the word ‘ascribe’ means in the sentence ‘try and ascribe everything that happens to you to the “giver of the pleasure,” the Creator.’
Just a little bit more about what inner intention this word should evoke.

In the Tip and Quote of the week it says ‘try and ascribe everything that happens to you to the “giver of the pleasure,” the Creator.’
I am trying to do this. I can manage for very short instances but then get distracted. I seem to also get confused by the concept of ‘everything’, as what I’m aware of as everything changes in each moment, so as my mind tries to ascribe the ‘everything’ the everything is changing.
Does this get easier with practice? Will there be more specific directions in later lessons?
Thank you.
In Attaining the Worlds it says “Developing a hatred toward egoism will eventually lead to our liberation from it.”
Is it ever appropriate to develop hatred? Would it not more be a case of compassionately seeing the ego for what it is, and that way achieve liberation from it?
