The negative aspects of pride are closely tied in with vanity and self-conceit; Gurdjieff usually referred to the three together. Racial pride is ignorance. Spiritual pride is the worst sort. It arises from ego when a person thinks he is very evolved or has special gifts. Pride can have a positive aspect as in pride of workmanship or pride in a job well done. For pride to be positive, in the sense of dignity, there would have to be three forces operating, whereas vanity is one-brained.", "product_order": "240", "product_icon": "\/media\/commerce_products\/84\/133-b61-pride.jpg", "product_brand_id": "1", "product_price": "74.0000", "product_price_ex_tax": 64.347826086957, "product_price_local_tax": "74.0000", "product_created_datetime": "2020-03-30 14:29:38", "product_code": "", "product_barcode": "", "product_is_unorderable": "0", "product_is_shipping_required": "1", "product_inventory_level": null, "product_uri": "\/products\/gnostic-press-pride-1\/" }, { "product_id": "83", "product_title": "Laziness", "product_content": "Editors’ note: The most common manifestations of laziness are in relation to the body, which likes nothing better than sitting down eating, drinking and generally taking it easy.

Self-conceit is connected with arrogance, boastfulness and selfishness and there is a lot of conceit in the acquisition of power.

Selfishness is also instinctive, operating in all animals. We too are animals, but have the possibility of being men. Selfless service and externally considering are good ways of breaking down selfishness.
