Humility & Self-respect |
|
Humility & Self-respect Humility Contemplation: Humility provides us with the wings to fly. It gives us an enthusiasm based on inner truth and allows us to move forward easily. When there is no humility, we find ourselves being pulled back again and again by difficult situations we've created for ourselves. Application: When I do something, I need to make sure that I am enjoying it and take the time to remind myself on the joy it gives me. This frees me from the desire for recognition or praise. Then I will find myself succeeding in any task I undertake, and others will appreciate my efforts. Self-respect There is greater value in incognito donation and incognito service. Such a soul will constantly be full in the self, will be a carefree soul and will not care for name and glory. Such soul will be constantly seated on the throne of self-respect, not on the limited throne of other's regard. When you forget the word "self" from self-respect, you become trapped in wanting regard and respect, than you have to labour a lot and yet you receive very little success. Rita |
