To understand and be free from self-assertion, and to do something,
which you really love to do – regardless what it is, how small or how little
remarkable it is – awakens a spirit of greatness, which never is seeking
others´ approval or reward, and which do a thing for its own sake, and
therefore possesses strength and ability not to lie under for mediocre
influences.

To understand and be free from self-assertion, and to do something,
which you really love to do – regardless what it is, how small or how little

Here is that being invisible to the culture directly a blessing – that
being unregarded, ignored, and devalued, can be an impetus to take another
route: the quiet way, the gentle, steady, behind-the-scenes path. This is the
invisible way of empowerment, the slow path of alchemy. Soul work takes time.
This means you intentionally have to make time, especially in our increasingly
hyperactive, extroverted secular culture.

Self-assertion is a kind of self-interest which makes the mind mediocre
Self-assertion is a vice.
Self-assertion is a kind of self-interest, where everything turns around
the Ego, and therefore makes the mind mediocre.
To live in a world, which is controlled by self-assertion, without being
self-assertive, means, truly, to love something for its own sake, without seeking
a reward, a result; but this is very difficult, because the whole world, all
your friends, your relatives, struggle to achieve something, to accomplish
something, to become something.
