If you consider someone superior

And fear their company

You have some beliefs

That you yourself consider disgraceful

We have attachment to certain beliefs

Those beliefs form our character

We form relationships based on our character

And hence find it difficult to let go of those beliefs

Deep down, we know those beliefs are disgraceful

But we still hold those beliefs

When we are in the company of people who hold contrary beliefs

We feel uncomfortable and fearful

We yearn for their approval

We yearn for their company

But when we are in their company

We feel uncomfortable and fearful

Work on those beliefs

Remove the attachment to those beliefs

You will then not fear their company

And you will embrace freedom

When in doubt, think about consciousness

Think about the ecstasy that it carries

Evaluate your beliefs in its shadow

And choose the beliefs that coincide with it

You will then not have fear

You will then not consider others superior

It’s the beliefs that make one superior or inferior

And you have found the key to happiness
