*Question:
Steph, I realized the other day that I have a full-on
inferiority complex.
My ego judges everyone. When I meet or see people, my
ego is thinking “This guy is better than me because
he’s *insert quality that I lack*”, “That guy is
really cool/big/masculine, I bet women love him” or “I
wonder if that girl would think I’m enough?” etc…
I DO know what it means to open the chakras. I know
that the only way to be free of this problem is not to
dwell in my ego, but it is so paranoid that the open
chakra moments are short lived. Especially in social
situations, I find it so difficult to not fall
“asleep” straight away. Social situations are almost
like tranquilizers or something.
I don’t want this anymore. I want to release this fear
that I’m not enough. I don’t want to feel above or
below people.
What do you think?
Thanks, forum poster
>>My Comments:
If you want to release something, but find that you are unable to do so easily, it is because you are SUPPOSED to still be experiencing it. There are levels of consciousness, and we all need to go through them.
“All Things Are Appropriate.”
My friend, you are still learning all about how to feel inadequate. The only thing you can realistically do is to speed up your process. Do your “problem” even MORE, and make sure that you are learning from it.
Experience what this feels like FULLY.
Surrender.
Allow.
LET GO.
Life is a classroom, and we cannot skip any grades. This is why your typical guy with approach anxiety can come to my website and purchase the GTP, listen to it a bunch of times, and NOT HEAR IT. Or barely hear it.
All over the world I have men who are in very poor relationships, with the girl running their lives right into the ground. They are not READY for the GTP, otherwise they would have taken their power back and re-polarized their relationship.
They still need to REMAIN in the level of “no polarity” because they are learning. All humans ever do is play with energy and learn from it.
So, play. Go out tonight and become more and more conscious of your jealousy, inferiority. After that, the next level for you will probably be to make yourself feel SUPERIOR. We start by learning about how to be inferior, and once we’ve had enough the next step is learned superiority. This is where you start to have a lot of contempt for people, because they are not as wise as you are yet.
The mind is a coin, with a light and dark side, always. You feel inferior? Great, superiority is just around the corner (as long as you are mind-identified, which realistically, you probably will be for a long time to come because you are far from ready to let this all go and enter the state of No Ego).
We have to learn things for ourselves. Borrowed wisdom from books, etc. definitely helps, but we always need experience. This is why I can teach a guy in under 5 minutes how to get his girlfriend to follow his lead, but after our talk he will go back to his old ways. He will go home and argue with her, etc. etc. because his consciousness wasn’t ready yet, and all I can do for him is to plant the seeds which will sprout later on.
All this is to say that levels of consciousness, as far as I can tell, cannot be skipped. You are in the sacral chakra right now, so you’re learning how to feel nice and inferior, next you’ll be feeling superior, and once you FINALLY learn the lesson “I am enough” you’ll be in your solar plexus chakra learning how to appreciate your uniqueness. (I suggest working on solar-plex Chakra right away, to speed this up)
The inferior/superior consciousness is jealousy, and therefore materialistic. Next thing you know - and I’m not saying anything about you personally, but I get this a lot from students, because as a teacher, more often than not the student place you on a pedestal. He feels inferior to his teacher, because this is his current understanding of the way things work. He does not yet know that we are all connected, All One.
After a while, my students start resenting me because my very presence makes them feel inferior. I’m not doing anything other than teaching, but this is the way mind-identified humans work. So after feeling too inferior for too long, jealouy kicks in and they will want their revenge. Now they will try to prove to me, and to themselves, that they are really superior to me and have been all along.
All teachers have to deal with this, it’s just a matter of degree. I think i get it much more than say, a math teacher, because I teach about ego, chakras, consciousness, relationships, etc. Mostly what guys come to me for is to learn how to take their power back from women and polarize their relationships - whether it’s on a dating level, or pickup level, or even all the way up the ladder and into Interdependent Circles with multiple bisexual women. Since I teach them how to stop giving their power away, eventually they start to realize they have been giving ME too much power and they wish to retaliate.
In my case, if you’ve been on my forms, you know what I’m talking about. How many students - usually the most loving, appreciative and devoted students - have turned on me? Too many to count, but it’s all very predictable. Not ALL students will go through this phase, but many of them will. I usually get this from the guys who need a lot of training in sacral chakra levels.
Either way, a teacher loves his students unconditionally because he understands what is going on inside of them. I don’t “hate” any of my old students, and in fact, many of them come back when they are ready to apologize.
Human evolution and consciousness levels - nobody is above any of it, and we cannot skip this stuff. Your jealousies are very natural, but the good news is that now you are becoming CONSCIOUS. So go and master jealousy for all it’s worth. Go and make yourself feel inferior, superior, and finally, you will stop comparing yourself to others when you are done playing with jealousy.
This is when you really start moving into the 3rd Chaka, the solar plexus. You start seeing everyone as UNIQUE, and you start seeing that everone is a cell inide of the same large organism, the “human”. You’ll stop comparing yourself to others because you will understand what it means to appreciate your own uniqueness.
After that, you’ll move up into the Heart and start to know, deep in our very being, that You Are Truly Loved.
Once you hit THAT level, you’re a master, an absolute MASTER with women. Compassion sets in, and relationships become smooth and easy, as long as you’re dating women who are more or less in the same vibrational frequency.
The next level up is COMMUNICATION (throat chakra), which now comes very easily to you because your Heart is so open. Everything you say will be smooth, funny, clever, smart, wise, and deep. You Speak Your Truth without any projections, insecurities.
This is why I love Chakras so much - they provide us with a nice model for the different levels of consciousness, and the model is *tight*. Once people start actively working on the 7 chakras, their consciousness rises MUCH faster than it would have if they hadn’t found chakras. And, every enlightened master who ever lived will agree with me. You won’t find ONE who thinks “chakras aren’t science, so it’s not worth learning”.
Actually, come to think of it, Chakras are probably MORE “scientific” than science itself. They are THAT accurate. For myself anyway, my own evolution skyrocketed once I learned about Chakras.
Now, I know it’s hard when you’re stuck in the second chakra - it’s probably the toughest level because you are so mind-identified. But rather than resist and fight with yourself, try accepting and allowing your “problems” to breathe instead. Sacral Chakra is all about let-go, so you are definitely on the right path and will most likely get out of this level within a year or so if you stick to it.
When you find that you are unable to stop doing something - in your case, feeling inferior - rather than REPRESS, it’s much wiser to prescribe the symptom. “Do your problem MORE”. Because it isn’t a “problem” at all - it’s something REQUIRED on your road to enlightenment. You have to master the art of feeling inferior - this is something that you set up for yourself right before you incarnated. We give ourselves challenges, and things we want to learn from - there are no ‘problems”, all things are appropriate.
Also take time to focus regularly on the 3 affirmations that go with Sacral Chakra:
“I trust the universe to supply my abundance and prosperity”
“I Am Enough”
“I freely let go of what I don’t need and welcome Change”
Just those three lessons are HARDCORE, profound life-altering lessons. Note that they are all the exact opposite of Ego. And, they require a total let-go. But right now, if you find yourself grasping and unable to stop, GRASP HARDER. Learn all that you need to learn. Master the problem fully.
Namaste, and many Blessings on your Inner Journey.

Cheers Steph. You are right. It’s a choice, and I’ll
choose otherwise when I’m truly tired of it. So why
not put myself in plenty of situations where I can
experience it, rather than always be on the run from
it.
I will keep meditating and keep an eye on myself
choosing inferiority. I’m going to go out at night and
relax about feeling inferior. I have really resisted
putting myself in situations where I would feel it
strongly for as long as I can remember.
In fact just that choice is like a HUGE load of my
shoulders - the burden of resisting it and running
from it and fighting it is much more draining than the
feeling itself.
Thanks again, your help is unique to me, and very appreciated!!

Hi Stephane,
I like what you said about embracing your inferiority or superiority, etc. It makes a lot of sense. It seems many men either dominate women or are dominated by them. My husband tends to let me dominate him even when I’ve talked to him about it, complained about it, many times. I think its his way of avoiding making decisions. He feels most comfortable focusing on one thing and leaving the organizing up to me. I’ve noticed many men do this.
Another thing you said that helped me was about how students project their feelings of inferiority and superiority on their teachers. Having taught Art History as an adjunct I’ve been on both sides of that coin. I look back on different things I said in contradiction to my teachers and also read some of the critical reviews I received from my students. Looking at it all from the perspective you gave makes it easier to let it go.
As far as Chakras go I think I’m leaving the sacral and sitting in the solar plexus. I still have feelings of inferiority and some of superiority, but I really don’t care anymore. I see that everything fits somewhere in the gamut between polarities.
What seems alien is the heart chakra and I wonder about the 3 affirmations. As I understand the physics of the universe I really don’t see how it could care less or even be aware of my, or anyone’s abundance and prosperity. Whether I am enough or not is irrelevant in the bigger scheme of things. It’s only relevant to me and those tied to my life. Letting go of or getting what I need also seems to be a roll of the dice. So maybe you could see why I both fear and welcome change.
I have had about half of my family die from old age, Alzheimer’s, alcoholism and leukemia. Being an animal lover I’ve had to make decisions on life and death about 20 or so times and watch people and animals die. The feeling of helplessness is hard to deal with. Especially when you’ve made bad choices that made things worse or didn’t think ahead. Every time I’ve prayed to something to make me more insightful, but every time I overlook something that becomes apparent after the fact. It’s ridiculous and counter productive to blame myself for all incidences and I really don’t intend to. I just wonder about the heart chakra. How do we know that we are truly loved and by whom or what? How do I know that everyone that went before me is OK? I know there is order (patterns) in chaos, but if those patterns are no different than what I see here in this worldly existence I don’t see how things can be much more than a roll of the dice.
