self

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
High self-esteem and low self-esteem are just
different sides of the same coin.
They each assume that there's a separate and
independent self that's feeling?or that's not
feeling?a certain level of esteem about itself.
Both positions equally support the illusion of the
actual existence of a real coin?a real historical
self.
In true awakening, though, there can be no
coinage.
