Humility & humanity
Duryodhan in Hindu epics serve as stark examples, embodying the demonic dimensions of an inflated self.
The Crucifixion of Christ stands as a poignant symbol, depicting the crucifixion of human ego. By sacrificing the ego, we embrace unity with all beings, and break free from the fetters of self, thus attaining liberation.
In 'Kshetra-Kshetragya Vibhag Yog', of the Bhagwad Gita, Krishn establishes 'humility and the absence of ego' as the bedrock upon which spiritual evolution must be built.
This timeless wisdom resounds in the modern world, where Jim Collins, a management expert, correlates humility with 'level five leadership', a pivotal element for top management's success.
Humility and humanity are inexorably entwined, two facets of the same coin, each reinforcing the other in a harmonious dance. There are some people who dedicate themselves to selfless service in the spirit of humility.
