Lower self
Quote
The inner self is a mechanism that works for the interests of the body. When it gets angry, it tends to get out of control and it wants to be selfish when its interests are concerned.

Quote
Faith is to defeat the inner self, satan and the negative suggestions and to give a struggle and become victorious against those who are unscrupulous for a lifetime.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Faith is resisting the negative suggestions of the satan. One could have doubts, but should always be on the side of and think positively about God.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
Feelings of hatred and resentment are in people’s nature. The strong will and determination that people show in defeating these feelings beautify people’s morality and make them worthy of Heaven.

Quote
In fact, it is a grave misdeed and immorality to live thinking only about one's self.
Adnan Oktar

Getting defensive in the face of constructive criticism is an unwise reflex. Constructive criticism helps one see details and improve oneself.

Quote
It’s easy to defeat the inner self and the satan. Muslims are strong-willed.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
Haters are people who have failed to control their lower selves and who are defeated by satan. Such people should be approached like a doctor would approach their patients. We need to treat haters by approaching them with compassion like a doctor approaches a patient. These people are spiritually ill.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
Satan’s whisperings, doubts can come to mind any moment. But believers ignore them by means of their faith. One’s inner self, satan attacks the mind with thousands of doubts, groundless worries, but believers just ignore them.

Quote
Many people give in their lower-selves and the pressure of the satan but forget about love. Without love, the body collapses, sanity regresses, foresight and perception would be lost.
Adnan Oktar
Quote
How can something be considered right if the opposite of it does not exist? How will we be tried if satan and the lower-self do not exist? How can we recognize what is beautiful, what is right? It is impossible. It is impossible to achieve any higher love, any higher wisdom in this way. Then we would be no different than a child, we would not be able to develop.

Quote
Fiercely defending one's own desires is a mental illness. One should get a grip on himself in this situation and take refuge in God. He should ask himself, "How did I turn into such an abnormal person?" He should listen to what others have to say in a reasonable manner. A Muslim is open to 'al-amr bi-l-maʿrūf wa-n-nahy ʿani-l-munkar' (enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong). Therefore, he becomes wiser with ease.

Quote
If you told those [who are weak in faith] to remain sleepless for the sake of God, to serve Islam, they wouldn't do that; but if you told them that they would win a car if they waited standing up for days without any sleep, they would do it without hesitation. This shows the tendency of the inner self to assume an animalistic, dishonorable, low character.

If one allows his lower self to take control, the lower self will start acting like an animal; it will act primitively like one.
Adnan Oktar
Other languages

Turkish / Türkçe
Dutch / Nederlands
Quote
The human body tends to behave like an animal when left to its own devices; it will just want to eat and sleep, it will easily get scared and act selfishly. One should balance out that animalistic side by means of faith. One shouldn't allow oneself to act like an animal.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
Forgiveness is a characteristic God appreciates greatly. That is because revenge might give a lowly pleasure to one's soul, but forgiving is hard; I mean it [forgiveness] necessitates will-power and wisdom. That is because in forgiveness one does not achieve satisfaction, but revenge might bring satisfaction. That is why God takes forgiveness as a basis.

Quote
In order to be stable and reasonable one should certainly criticize himself. Even if it is once in a while, he should certainly criticize himself and one should do so when he is in the company of others. Only then one could become a stable, reasonable person. That is a miracle of the Qur'an. A solid, tangible miracle.
Adnan Oktar
Other languages
Azerbaijani / Azərbaycanca
Turkish / Türkçe
Quote
If one does not criticize himself and sees himself as sufficient and above criticism, he would become insane. A Muslim should certainly criticize himself and have others criticize him. This is necessary for one's sanity or else one's mental health would be disrupted; his judgment and reasoning would be impaired. His foresight and perception would be blocked. Have a look at those around you, you will see. Avoiding criticisms would cause instability and would prevent one to be reasonable.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
The lower self, jealousy and egocentricity make one’s body do abnormal acts eventually. People assume that nothing bad will happen if one follows his lower self; actually lots of things happen. It would ruin a man. The lower self is the propelling force in those who commit suicide. It drives them mad and drags them into committing suicide. They also commit murders because they abide by their lower selves.

Quote
God gives one aggressive, abnormal wrong feelings to the lower self, but He also shows the ways to be protected against those with the verses of the Qur’an. The whole system of trial is founded upon that anyways. People need to recognize this highly dangerous threat and be alerted and be careful against it. We are to look for the acts that please God the most.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
It is not possible to carry out possitive studies with one’s lower self. Lower selves cannot be exonerated. It is a force that is active in a person’s soul constantly commanding evil.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
People generally do not attach necessary importance to the concept of the lower self. Actually it is a special force embedded in humans, it is a negative power; may God forbid it might drive one crazy and might even make one commit murder, it might make one commit suicide. All these troubles happen under the influence of the lower self. People imagine that nothing would happen if they go by their lower selves but actually lots of things happen. It might take one over and drag them into troubles,; the lower self suffocates one.

Quote
One should look at everything with compassion, mercy and through the eyes of reason and he should be calming. We are being tested in this short life on this world. Some people might yield to their lower-selves. But one would not be abandoning religion when he does so, he would just be committing a sin and making a mistake that is all.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
To criticize one's self and not claiming to be free of blame would make a Muslim adopt the character of a guide. A person's criticizing himself would make him wise and healthy. Exalting one's self would make one sick. It makes one crazy. When one criticizes himself, when one criticizes his lower self, he would be exalted; he would become wise and smart.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
Of course all mistakes, all abnormal behaviors are revealed to every people. Because they do those mistakes knowingly, their faces are darkened. For instance their voices become weak, they start crying, they get angry, their blood tension peaks or drops. They feel that pain because they do not act as Allah has commanded. If they act in line with what Allah commanded their hearts would be at ease.
Adnan Oktar

Quote
Ambition for fame does not become a Muslim. In order to educate the lower-self a person should constantly see his/her lower-self in weakness. He /She should submit to Allah, feel great love to his/her brothers and sisters, approach them with affection and live the enthusiasm of being a servant to them.
