In his reflection on the concept of 'unselfing', Jug Suraiya draws from the works of poet-priest Gerard Manley Hopkins and novelist-philosopher Iris Murdoch. Unselfing is described as a spontaneous process that liberates individuals from the constraints of their ego, allowing them to engage with the world in a more profound and loving manner. Murdoch's 1970 book, *The Sovereignty of Good*, posits that this experience can be induced by moments of beauty, such as observing nature, which can shift one's perspective from self-centeredness to a broader consciousness. Suraiya illustrates this with examples from Hopkins's poetry and Murdoch's own experiences, emphasizing that unselfing is not a result of willpower but rather a surrender to a greater reality. This process offers a unique opportunity to connect with the universal, encouraging creativity and deeper understanding of existence.
