INSPIRATION

To compare your own spiritual development and achievements to those of others is not only futile but actually shows that you are still very much living in a reality dominated by the Ego. In doing so, inevitably you will find it either lacking or superior to the other's and both conclusions are equally misleading. For the Heart knows no comparisons. It recognizes the equality and simultaneous uniqueness of each human being. The Ego-Mind alone needs to compare it-self, because this secures its existance and validity. However there is a second kind of comparison which, working on the presumption of everyone's worthy uniqueness, respects the differences in everyone and actually draws inspiration for further personal growth from them.
The same open-hearted approach should be taken upon listening to teachers talking or of reading religious doctrines and spiritual theories. This secures that you are neither developing a spiritual inferiority/superiority comlex, nor getting caught in rigid belief-systems.

Only when the reason for feeling loved is an all-encompassing, unconditional love that is being felt inside your own self, does love make you immortal. Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.
