Books Quote by Robin Sacredfire
““The ego is an amazing mechanism. You don't need to fight it back. You just need to realize that you'll come back to earth and face everything you have done before. I'm counting on the fact that I will find my books, read them and learn everything I will forget along the way, everything I've started to forget. I'm counting on that to become a better human being, to encounter more people like me, and to have a better existence. That makes me humble, even though doesn't imply refusing the power of my ego. I simply go through it to overcome it. That's the trick here. If more people loved themselves, it would be easier to experience a loving world too. Instead, half is running away from their ego, while the other half is trying to impose it on others. One half rejects self-love while the other half seeks it through the love of others. I chose to be none of those halves and in doing so I found enlightenment.””
