Dear sir, How does psychic🌟 tackle the challenge of collective egoism? Example, even though you want to be free from identity, you are forcefully assigned an identity based on your birth in today’s India. And there are gangs out there waiting to spread hatred against various communities. With what attitude would psychic take up and begin solving problems of such nature?
