Episode description

"It cannot be asserted emphatically enough that the Doctrine of the Many Selves is 100 percent Tibetan and Gnostic in origin. It is not at all pleasant to find out that within each person lives hundreds and thousands of psychological people." —​Samael Aun Weor, The Great Rebellion

Esoteric psychology reveals that the causes of suffering originate from the ego, which, contrary to popular belief and modern studies of mind, is multiple, not unitary. The many "I"s continually battle for control of our mind, emotions, and body, producing all the sorrow and afflictions of life. This lecture explains scriptures and myths that illustrate the doctrine of the many "I"s and teach us how to overcome this internal multiplicity to attain true individuality, serenity, and lasting happiness.
