PERSONALITY ???

The personality is a borrowed thing.

We borrow our sense of self from outside, we borrow our very identity of who we are

from outside. The expression of all those identities is called ‘personality’.

Personality is your external layer.

Personality is like your clothes, an outer covering, an outer layer that has come from the

outside.

Personality is not what you are, personality is what you wear - not in the sense of clothes but

in the sense of putting upon yourself.

A person who is interested in external has

surely no eyes to look into internal, to look

into what is essential.

PERSONALITY INCLUDES :

OUR WAY OF LIVING which is “OTHER CENTERED”

We do things for the sake of others.

Example:

Look at the way you study.

You don’t study because you want to know. You want to study so that you may write in

examination paper, so that the examiner can read it.

You study for the sake of others. What the examiner thinks of you is more important.

You don’t study out of love, you study out of fear.

BE ALERT , WAKEFUL AND AWARE

You must know the essential and the personality is not the essential

Personality has become very important in this blind world because this world has no

eyes to look into the essential

Then what is the essential ?

Your own thoughts

Your being

Your own

words

Be more concerned about

what is going on in your mind.

We are just THOUGHTS

Your thoughts make you

who you are.

An obsession with personality means that I do not care about what is going on here in my mind,

because it is not visible.

Expressions are visible, my clothes are visible, facial color is visible, words are visible, my way of walking

is visible, but my thoughts are not visible.

It makes you forget what is more important than your personality, the content of mind.

For example: If I kill someone then I will be arrested, but at least I can think of killing that person and

derive pleasure out of it.’

Law cannot punish you for your thoughts but life and existence will surely punish you because all

your thoughts become your mind itself. They cause a permanent change, a permanent

deformation of the mind.

Live in intelligence, the primary, and personality, the secondary, will be

automatically taken care of.

You are the content of your mind.

Personality is just an appearance you wear from outside.

Be bothered with what you are, not what you wear.
