Personality Development
Personality Development implies progressive identification with higher dimensions of personality.
Personality development is defined as the relatively
enduring pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that
distinguish individuals from one another. The dominant
view in the field of personality psychology today holds that
personality emerges early and continues to change in
meaningful ways throughout the lifespan.
Development involves struggle with one's lower mind characterized by desires, old habits, wrong tendency, impulses, and bad impression. The lesser we identify with the lower mind, and the more we identify with the higher mind, and exercise our discrimination, the more developed will our personality be. This involves struggle to grapple with one's mind and its old habits,to cultivate new n wholesome ones. But this struggle is the greatest of all struggles in that it makes us civilized in the real sense of the term by manifesting our divinity and thereby our hidden perfection.
