one said that objectivity is the subjectivity of the dominant group. i am very sad at being an object and unloved. i feel so humiliated being subject to people who are not as spiritually inclined as me. they also abuse, sometimes sexually. is there a mantra or meditation or new way of looking at this that will help me.

Jessie,
It saddens me to hear that this is happening to you. There is no excuse or justification for you being treated this way. When anyone mistreats you, you shouldn't just continue to take it. Humiliation of another being is never okay in any circumstance. I'm not saying you should attack them either, I'm saying that you need to protect your personal space. My first thought is that you should get away from that environment or make plans to get away from that environment as quickly as possible. If you're not able to get way from the people that are hurting you immediately, you need to let them know that you won't be taking their abuse anymore. You have to let them know through your words and actions and through non-verbal communication that they can't bully you anymore because you will not allow them to. Also, pray for God for guidance and to help make a way for you to leave that environment. Just know that you're going to get through this and you're going be okay.
Be strong Jessie
EDIT: I also wanted to ask is there anyone in your life, close to you that you can talk about this with? Because I think that would help, even on a practical level, with dealing with the situation you in and steps to get out of it.

I am very sorry for your pain my friend. If I may suggest the Gayatri mantra for you, I am certain it will help you. You are loved more than you know my friend. Ask the universe to show you and protect you. Then, believe it will xxx Make a habit of reciting this mantra whenever you are feeling low - it will work wonders for you Love and Light Rose Xxx

Dear Jessie, I know that in your situation, you are restricted in the amount of control you have over who you have to interact with. But in a few short months that situation will change.
I agree with everything that Clara has said, in that no one should allow another to diminish how they feel about themselves. You know, you are a good and kind person. Often other people feel the need to bully or intimidate others because they feel so insecure about themselves and are in pain and unhappy. That does not make it right, but I feel if you view their behaviour in this light rather then seeing it as a personal attack on you, it may make it easier to bear.
Be an example Jessie, let your inner light shine. By doing this, you will attract people to you who are similar. Do not drop to the level of those who are abusive to you by being tempted to retaliate, simply let it go over your head. Often people thrive on the reaction they get. If you don't react, you stop feeding their desire to have power over you, then they will leave you alone.
I know the mantra that Rose has suggested it and it is a good one. It gives the person who uses it a beautiful sense of peace and inner strength. Just in case you do not know the Gayatri Mantra here it is:-
Aum Bhur Bhuvah Svah Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat A basic translation can be given as... Oh God, the Protector, the basis of all life, Who is self-existent, Who is free from all pains and Whose contact frees the soul from all troubles, Who pervades the Universe and sustains all, the Creator and Energizer of the whole Universe, the Giver of happiness, Who is worthy of acceptance, the most excellent, Who is Pure and the Purifier of all, let us embrace that very God, so that He may direct our mental faculties in the right direction .Take care my friend and keep your head high. Love and light Kaz

You cannot wave a magic wand and make everyone you meet spiritual. We all meet different types of people on the path of life, some are lovely, some are rude, some are ignorant, some are selfish and many others just follow the path that was taught them by their parents or role models.
You cannot make anyone do anything, but you can show others a better way, you can show them peace, by being peaceful yourself, you can show them joy, by being in awe at the smallest of things, you can show love and respect, by caring for yourself and others.
There are so many good qualities you can show other people, by doing this you allow them to do the same in your presence. You should make your life your mantra, make your life as vibrant and radiant as the sun and all will bow in gratitude as you walk through life.
