Exercise the muscle of compassion instead of feeding fire to this ego. Compassion is like water, it is the only way to put out this fire.

"Imagine that you have just realized that you are in a middle of a big war. You have just grasped that death is at the moment of descending upon you, because there is a battle all around you. This is actually the case. We are ninety-seven percent trapped in the ego. This means we have three percent capacity left to escape -- if we use it. If we do not use it, we are lost. We will be absorbed in that battle, crushed." - Gnosticteachings.org
"It is unfortunate human beings experience inner reality after the outer reality. It is guided by the outer reality. That is why we exist as matter -- Slaves. But if your inner reality is consciously created, it will make outer reality happen." - Paramahamsa Nithyananda
"If you are in the cage, you cannot see the cage, so it is necessary to get out temporarily in order to see that cage and understand it. By understanding how the cage is made, we can see its weak points and begin to work on them so we can get out. And in that way you can understand." - GnosticTeachings.org
