In this answer to a viewer's question, "Secret of Letting Go" author Guy Finley explains that every sleeping human being is a narcissist, seeing nothing but him or herself in everything that happens, and then not wanting anything that challenges the glorified self-image.

Whenever we don't want a particular condition and then attempt to push it away, we actually strengthen the condition that we say we don't want. To see this dynamic taking place as it happens causes a separation from that level of self that falsely believes that it can feel better about itself by resisting life.

Guy Finley explains that true goodness is not measured by actions that validate the image we have of ourselves as being a good. An action that is truly good has no self-reference, and is the natural outcome of being present.
