The dangerous appearance of "Higher Self"
Sometimes we regard sacrifice oneself for the others or for the group as "anatta". It's actually means "selflessness". If some of the "selfless" heroes get to this realm, people will say that he reach the realm of "Higher Self". Generally, the heroes are usually full of the chivalrous spirit. And they never lack of the pride that on behalf of one group or a nation. But there always be some limitations of the times on these heroes, Yue Fei was a national hero in those days, but now he is intolerant for the national unity. As a delegate of "Higher Self", Yue Fei becomes non-sense nowadays.
Even today, a lot of the heroes, who sacrifice themselves for a nation or a faith group, will gradually become meaningless. “What millions died that Caesar might be great". That's more sadly: "the greater the heroes there will be more hurt to the whole of human."
To become a bold hero, is still the dream of many people. So the heroism still has the market. But when the warm-blood of heroism up rushes to ones mind, you should be calm down and think it twice. Does the activities you will do are the feces of the ambitious designs? And whether your activities will do benefit the majority? What’s more important, you should weigh up your behaviors carefully. Whether these behaviors will surely lead to injury? Whether these will increase the value of the world's negative forces? And if so, it is better not to be a "hero".
