How Do Comparisons Work in Yogic Psychology?

The key principle that we're going to be talking about when it comes to yogic psychology Is the a hum god or the ego. The ego in the yogic model of the mind is something that makes comparisons So if we think about our ego, it's our sense of self And we can't really have a sense of self Without a comparison to another person. We make downward comparisons as emotional coping strategies because if I'm feeling bad about myself  that all has to do with my self-esteem and my sense of self-worth.
