I spent many years working on myself and gaining greater self-mastery of my physical, mental, emotional and spiritual selfs. As I went down this self-mastering path which I am still on, I encountered my ego that said to me that I was better than others who had less self-mastery than I did. This ego thinking, I found, was both a cognitive trap and a spiritual trap that kept me blocked from growing myself in greater spiritual awareness and maturity. I talk about what the wisdom path taught me regarding how I got out of this cognitive and spiritual trap. I hope this uplifts you and provides more insight into your spirituality.
