Whatsoever people say is about themselves. But you become very shaky, because you are still clinging to a false center. That false center depends on others, so you are always looking to what people are saying about you. And you are always following other people, you are always trying to satisfy them. You are always trying to be respectable, you are always trying to decorate your ego. This is suicidal. Rather than being disturbed by what others say, you should start looking inside yourself\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Whenever you are self-conscious you are simply showing that you are not conscious of the self at all. You don\u2019t know who you are. If you had known, then there would have been no problem\u2014 then you are not seeking opinions. Then you are not worried what others say about you\u2014 it is irrelevant!<\/p>\n<p>When you are self-conscious you are in trouble. When you are self-conscious you are really showing symptoms that you don\u2019t know who you are.
