Does being STO make you a loser in the eyes of this world? How do you cope?

Strongly crystallized and balanced lower chakras tend to ameliorate this problem, as the individual gains a radiant, magnanimous and influential quality. Remember, Jesus was so popular that the masses were following him around even when he wanted to be alone. He was only killed because the religious authority of the time felt threatened by his massive popularity, and it was his choice to allow his death to be a symbol for something greater.

Beyond that, balanced lower rays tend to eliminate the concern over what people think of you in the first place. I learned a long time ago that if you do things in confidence without giving a damn what people think, people will tend to respect that and get behind you, whereas they will often subconsciously pick up on signs of insecurity and mirror them, i.e. if you think yourself incapable you will be treated as if you are incapable. I had to withstand a lot of abuse before I realized these patterns were emerging from the personal thought that I was garbage. Once I started respecting myself more a different sort of person started entering into my life. These days I get along very well with almost everyone I meet, because I believe myself to be a likable person.
