The Seven Stages on the Sufi .
“Path of Truth”.
💥The Deprived Ego : holding everyone else responsible for their own unhappiness
💥The Accusing Ego : blaming oneself for everything, sometimes to the point of self-effacement.
💥The Inspired Ego : here we roam the Valley of Knowledge, possess and display patience, perseverance, wisdom, and humility. The world feels new and full of inspiration.
💥The Serene Ego : Generosity, gratitude, and an unwavering sense of contentment regardless of the hardships in life are the main characteristics accompanying anyone who has arrived here.
💥The Pleased Ego : the Valley of Unity. Those pleased with whatever situation ‘God’ places them in. Mundane matters make no difference.
💥The Pleasing Ego : one becomes a lantern to humanity, radiating energy to everyone who asks for it, teaching, healing and illuminating like a true master.
💥The Purified Ego : the seventh stage, one becomes Insan-i Kâmil, a perfect human being. But nobody knows much about that state, and even if a few ever did, they wouldn’t speak of it.”
