That's an interesting division. But, how does elevating ourselves, even if the better part, not reduce to ego gratification too?

- lst 18y agoEgo gratification is not bad: it's good and even necessary to grow. But we can't always (by ourselves) distinguish between gratification (read: elevating growth) and egoism (destructive growth). So we need some 'illumination', which is, in another term: Religion.
