Part 1
Here's why the negative sense of self is blind: it doesn't want to see the smallest thing that challenges whatever it's become identified with; and yet (it is) unable to look at anything else... Which means it is not just a prisoner of what it resists, but (is its) unconscious keeper, as well.
Part 2
Negative reactions can never liberate us from ANY unwanted moment because they are the reincarnation of the unconscious nature responsible for their painful reappearance.
