小しょう主しゅ観かん

noun

small ego; limited self

A rare term likely used in philosophical or psychological discussions to contrast a narrow, individualistic sense of self with a broader, more universal perspective. Not in common everyday use.

• その哲てつ学がく書しょでは「小しょう主しゅ観かん」を脱だっして大たい我がに至いたるべきだと説といている。

  That philosophy book argues that one should transcend the 'small ego' and reach the greater self.
