Reminds: there are 2 machines in your brain (A) logical machine- operate with data+ truth for you
(B) Emotional machine-operate to feelings and emotions.
This emotional machine, normally attracts the Pride. It is too great an admiration of oneself. Pride has 7 evil consequences:
(1)Boasting
(2)Love of publicity
(3)Hypocrisy( a way of behaving in which you pretend that you have better moral principles than you actually do)
(4)Hardheadedness( practical and able to make difficult decisions without letting your emotions affect your judgment)
(5)Discord(formal disagreement or quarreling between people)
(6)Quarrelling
(7)Disobedience
When all these 7 inclinations grow in our dealings with God and neighbour, leads to Egoism.

A good example, of dying without any emotional agony was the death of St Maximillian kolbe.
A franciscan priest, St Maximillian Kolbe,(born 1894) who was sent to the concentration camp at Auschwitz for opposing nazis: he died(14/8/1941)- when he exchanged his life for that of a condemned married man.
What is the difference with Maximillian Kolbe to Jesus disciples?. May be that concept of Holy spirit was absent, until pentecost?.
