The biggest challenge to spirituality is to step back and observe Life and others from a place of truth, instead of ego. It is easy to get caught up in ego (fear, doubt of motives and attack thinking). We can read into their words, body language, and actions. "what did they mean?" "Who do they think they are?" When others are acting or living from their ego (false self created by negative life experiences) it brings out our ego. We feel attacked or take things personally. We want to take up a defensive position.
I often find myself reacting to others or taking things personally instead of readily realizing that their actions and words say more about themselves and nothing really about me. However the ego, loves to take things personally.
The most powerful spiritual practice I can perform, is simply step back and see
Life and the actions of others from a position of Love, And Truth. Not easy, but such a better way !
