We prefer humility in others – and if we prefer it in others – we can soon prefer it in ourselves.
Humility doesn’t mean hiding in the corner and pretending you are not strong. Humility means to be what you are.
Humility accepts the very nature of a human being is complete, unadulterated, ecstatic joy.
Have a healthy respect and love for yourself, but don’t be taken out by your ego.
Practice humility constantly. Whenever you start to think well of yourself, push those thoughts aside. Whenever you think ill of yourself, push those thoughts aside.
Humility means coming to the root of the matter, honestly looking at yourself and saying: “This is me for better or for worse.”
Humility feels that there is someone, somewhere who can do anything I can do better – except one thing: no one can be better at being me.
Humility is courage, the open acceptance of your own perfection.
Humility is the conscious awareness and acceptance of eternity as your body.
I must play my role, great or small – that is humility, without self-importance, without self-indulgence.
We’re blind, deaf and dumb. It is only that Self, which is our life force that makes who and what we are. The realization of that is self-realization.
Humility accepts that God places us in the right place at every single moment, not a moment to soon and not a moment too late.
Humility means freedom. It provides growth and takes you out of the cycle of change that you are currently in, which is stagnation.
The fact that you see a manifold world with different times, places and conditions -this exists only because of a lack of humility.
Only the ego can fear, experience hate, lust and jealousy. Humility experiences none of these things – it merges into the transcendental awareness of perfection.
It’s very easy for us to be humble when no one else is around. There is no reason for us to demonstrate our superiority, because no one challenges it.
When we interact with others the ego manifests. We have to show that we’re superior or that we know more, are more spiritual, evolved – or that we’re the worst, everyone is better.
You can be in a crowd full of friends and be miserable because you’re alienated. The ego alienates.
The ego seeks fame and fortune. Humility doesn’t seek at all – it accepts.
Everyone will admire you when you do well. What a horrible thing to do to someone.
