-What is essence?

the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something

abstract, that determines its character.
-What is personality?
the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distin
ctive character.
Now let's connect the two:
Essence determines its characters, Personality is the combination of characteris
tics or qualities. If we combine this two meaning, it will turn into one word an
d that is LIFE.
-What is life?
is a philosophical and spiritual question concerning the significance of living
or existence in general. It can also be expressed in different forms, such as "W
hat should I do?", "Why are we here?", "What is life all about?", and "What is t
he purpose of existence?" or even "Does life exist at all?"
Now those question can BE answered together. And that is Essence of life :)
Most people often wonder what is the essence of life, the true of the essence of
life is on how you look at life. life is all about creating and sharing memorab
le experiences worth smiling about. Life is what you make it. Life is everything
in our world. It is better to create than to learn! Creating is the essence of
life.
The Secondary Personality
In many spiritual traditions an important distinction is made between the essenc
e or real self of a human being and the secondary self or false personality. Man
consists of two parts: Essence and Personality.
Essence in man is what is his own.
Example:
A small child has no personality as yet. He is what he really is. He is essen
ce. His desires, tastes, likes, dislikes, express his being such as it is. But
as soon as so-called education begins, personality begins to grow.
Essence grows and develops under favourable conditions, but in most cases any r
eal inner development stops at an early age.
With most people, essence continues to receive impressions only until it is five
or six years old. As long as it receives impressions it grows, but afterwards
all impressions are taken by personality and essence stops growing. Sometimes i
f education is not too unfavourable, the essence may continue to grow, and a mor
e or less normal human being can result.

Personality in man is what is 'Not his own'.

Example: A man what he has learned, or reflects, all traces of exterior impress
ions left in the memory and in the sensations, all words and movements that have
been learned, all feelings created by imitation
all this is not his own, all this
is personality.

The commanding self or secondary personality has a number of negative manifesta

tions and consequences:
Dominates and controls human behaviour
Leads to actions which are mechanical, automatic and uncontrolled
Tends to make decisions based on habit, obedience to authority or lack of inform
ation
Is easily conditioned and operated by primitive logic
Rules and limits the scope and possibilities of human functioning
Inhibits and distorts human flexibility, progress and understanding
Stifles intuition and blocks recognition of spiritual truth
Acts as a barrier to higher or extra-dimensional perceptions and experiences
The issue of identity and self-image is a major preoccupation and concern of mos
t human beings. The personality of many people is an artificial one, almost a s
eries of roles which they play in social and interpersonal situations. In fact, th
e behaviour of most people in customary social situations is based on particular
roles that they play. In fact, the behaviour of most people in customary social
situations is based on particular roles that they play.
As soon as we define ou
rselves in relation to another we feel more comfortable, because now we know how
to be and act.
