In this episode of the …We Have a Spiritual Problem Podcast, we explore the nature of the Self at a depth rarely examined in modern culture. What does it mean to be a “self” in a world overflowing with ego, entitlement, loneliness, and moral confusion? Using the contrast between selfishness and selflessness—not as good vs. bad, but as self-centered vs. other centered orientations—we dissect how our spiritual evolution depends on balancing identity, responsibility, and transcendence. Drawing inspiration from Gale Sayers’s powerful creed “I Am Third,” Teilhard de Chardin’s concept of the Omega Point, and the cautionary tale of the “Tragedy of the Commons,” this episode connects personal transformation with humanity’s collective future.
