Ep. 197 - Shackles of Self-Focus

One sees his own problem, and instead of accepting the fact and improving it, a self-degrading, proud person simply laments it. The Self-Loather is an egotist because his attention is always revolving around himself. It is a good thing to clearly see your own faults and inadequacies. You know what needs to be improved or avoided.
