It's rather ironic to hear people disparaging social & cultural programming from deep within the bounds of their religious indoctrination... Matthew 7:3 springs to mind
There are different levels of self and self knowledge.

Perhaps, but if you can't sell everything you own now, or if you can't afford to lose it all without serious trauma or sadness then likely your control is delusion. Most philosophies and religions of the world have disconnection from the material world as a step to growing and becoming more aware. As the Word of the Most High said to the rich young man, "sell all of your possessions... then you will be 'perfect'". Part of the illusion of self awareness is the energy we put into an action, and a favorable result output. This is because our thinking is so basic that we do not demand much; most of what we look for can be accomplished by luck and circumstance. For example, subliminal control works well because it allows the vessel to believe what s/he does is their own idea. This way, there is no resistance in the programming.
Moving a mountain, for example, requires a measure of self awareness that only One Human I know has... so far. But, Peter walked on water for a few seconds until he reverted back to his original programming of the world that says humans can't walk on water. For a few seconds, Peter was actually self aware.
What seems real may be a very detailed projection.
No, Peter remembered his programing that said he couldn't walk on water. Lord Jesus demonstrated that he could, and he did until programing caused him to doubt.I think Peter began to sink because he became self aware, realizing that he actually couldn't walk on water.
These are built-in defense mechanisms in the programming - to discourage divergence. When people are legitimately hated for telling the truth, it is because they pose a threat to the program.
Matthew 10:39 (KJV) He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.True. Most do not want to truly look at themselves to actually become aware of themselves.
Yes!Matthew 10:39 (KJV) He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
Yes!Lose the old self (old programing) and become the new creature in Christ.
2 Cor. 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.(KJV)
One thing they all have in common, they were all lovers of money.
haters of the truth are all lovers of money
those who hate corporate whistleblowers are also lovers of money
It's the same pattern, religion or secular, and even in science as long as it concerns the hidden or hard truths about our world.
Money is a control element.
And according to the Bible, if you love money, you will despise God. God is the embodiment of the truth. Hence, the relationship. The god of this world is the devil. It is cunning enough to have many many followers thinking he's the same god in the Bible.
Most people will not acknowledge that they are not aware of themselves or that they do not know themselves because they cannot see themselves. But, once they are born again, they see, or become self aware and begin to embrace the new way of thinking,divesting of the old dead programing .What does that mean, in the practical sense?
Too many people are ignorant of the fake god masquerading as the Father of the Christ. It is not, and it plays both sides just to maintain the controlled chaos.
The god of this plane of existence is from chaos, and the best it can do is equilibrium/balance - which is why it is favored in sciences, and divergent answers (unbounded solutions) are usually rejected as unnatural or impossible.
I think you are right about the foundation of the aversion to truth comes from a love or dependency on money. Interesting how humans can believe we are free when mere cotton (or even 1s and 0s) control our mental, physical, and psychological health - as well as our future and very identity. It is a Beast System.

Amazing Grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost
But now I am found
Was blind but now I see

I learned to observe my thoughts and to replace dead thoughts with positive life giving thoughts.Can you cite a practical example, perhaps in your own life?

It depends on the thoughts of course. I am a retired nurse. I had to do some serious casting down of the thought that I could not finish nursing school.But I finished and had a long career.How do these new thoughts manifest themselves?
We are to use it wisely, and make 'friends' by it's use while it is viable.
You left out the part "....When it fails...." or "....When it is gone..." ...then you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings"

"While it is viable" covered that.
