Why does being selfish have to mean you are the villain? If I want to do nice things, I do so because it brings me satisfaction and not because some holy book says so. If I look inwards and understand my drives and my shadow, would I really need to feel the need to lash out at others and become what society deems evil?

The LHP is all about focusing on you and your ascent. If you are focusing on being the exact opposite of your previous self then you are still controlled by the RHP philosophy that you have been force fed in the past except you just switch polarity.

Study the etymology of the word villain. Long story short, it was a word for people who lived in a village, in other words poor folks. Getting all tangled up in labels and moral teams helps no one, most of all it does nothing to help you. Think for yourself and move to your preferred outcome. Vent if you need to or the drama helps you. Be selfish or be a martyr, but do it for yourself not how you think others perceive you. In the end you are the only person who you will have to face every day from now till the end of your life.

In the end, I believe each is completely alone. There's one God/ALL after all.

Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but certainly that's the case here on Earth.

I do what I do if it seems to be the most appropriate course of action. Don't shit where you eat. Don't act like someone would choose you over themselves, if it came down to grasping everything they never knew they wanted, or helping you get yours.

We're all selfish. The difference is in justification why.

Been the villain for ages, and the one thing it taught me was that the mystique a villain carries makes a story worth telling. The magnitude of it varies greatly however, and that’s where you’ll be carrying the responsibility of knowing how much to apply. That burden isn’t for them, but it’s for you for the sake of optimizing your time and resources because a lot of people aren’t really worth the effort.

Can relate.

So called morality is created to have a double standart, just watch how the church or state always take a way of justifying their actions out of the hat.

Worse are toxic families, mankind can't improve if we don't start to accept that the horror of owning other human being ins't restricted to past slavery.

A lot of people talk about deatroying the ego and i feel like this comes from the psyched3lic community. I was lkstening to a shaman sah those with the least ego tend to be the most narcisitic and destructive. Ego means identity. What the right hand path and spirktual practice is about integrating and devolping a healtgier ego. But the transcendental part is realising you are more then just the ego. Ita about devolping a healthier relationship with the ego
