We are all constantly trying to find a value system that is greater than what our surroundings convey. A kind of inner cohesive whole in our person with values that go beyond the ego’s control. Beyond the collective voice that the ego transmits to us through the roles we use to hide our suppression of the truth that our inner person provides us with. Which is the voice of our individual conscience. The ego imagines that everything that appears in the psychic stream of energy in the form of ideas and concepts, such as thoughts, feelings, images in whose flow it is itself a part, is in some way itself the origin of what it is exposed to. It is absolutely certain that the psychic objects which appear in the psychic totality it is surrounded by, which were there before it was even able to perceive them, are something created by the ego itself. Although then, it must admit that the other ego’s who are also in this psychic stream that make up that whole, clearly cannot have created it too. Because in that case it would have to admit that they were all the origin of all other personalities. That someone else have created ones own. No one would be their own unique person in themselves in the psychic whole that we perceive that we and everything else is a part of. This is what covertly happens in a veiled form, when we express our ideals behind the roles we play as we try to surpress that fact. With its morality, we hide behind what we think things should be rather than what they really are. Just think how little we let the other person’s opinion count for the sense of being in a larger coherent psychic whole. We constantly allow ourselves to be caught up in countless references to facts in order to somehow find a substitute for the voice we carry inside us all the time. We become politicians in our own cause, and we learn to loathe it in others by the constant internal conflicts it creates within us.
