Pride and humility : one impoverishes you, the other enriches
|
|
|
"A proud person is one who imagines he is dependent on nothing and no one, exactly like a lamp which claims to be the source of light, forgetting that the power station supplies the current. One who is humble, on the contrary, knows that he is not an isolated being, that he is not independent, and that if he does not remain linked to heaven, he will have neither force, light nor wisdom. He senses that he is a link in an infinite chain, the conductor of a cosmic energy which comes from afar and flows through him to all other human beings. A proud person forgets the source of the currents which manifest through him; he believes he is dependent only upon himself, and sooner or later he loses everything. The humble person is a valley irrigated by the water that descends from the peaks to fertilise the plains; he receives forces that pour forth constantly from the mountains and thus knows abundance. We have not yet understood all the riches that humility holds for us." Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
