Humility ...

Humility is an endearing quality. It wins the heart of people. A humble man shines without making an effort to do so. His simplicity and humility make him immensely likable. Let us try and analyse the issues of humility a bit more deeply. Let us try and understand what are the features and qualities of a humble man.

The 7 features of a humble man are -

  1. SIMPLE THINKING - When he thinks, he thinks simply. Grand ambitions and impractical hopes do not cloud his thinking.
  2. SIMPLE SELF-IMAGE - His image of his own self is simple. He is mindful of his weaknesses and does not claim a position of superiority which he does not hold.
  3. SIMPLE TALKING - He talks with simplicity. High words of self-praise and boasting are absent. He talks to the point without any superfluity in his speech.
  4. TOLERANCE - A humble man is tolerant of all those around him. He realises that every man has a right to his belief, both in thought and practice.
  5. RESPECTFULNESS - A humble man does not carry the baggage of ego and false pride and hence does not suffer from unmindful and hurtful arrogance. He is courteous and respectful to all.
  6. REPENTFUL - A humble man realises that his human weaknesses make him susceptible to mistakes often. Due to his being grounded to reality, his humility makes it easy for him to seek repentance often for his sins and mistakes.
  7. FAITH - Through humility comes faith and the destruction of doubt. Faith in a higher power to whom he bows and accepts its superiority.

These are the 7 main distinguishing features of a humble man. Adopt them. Nothing looks as spectacular, simple, and supreme as the cloak of humility. Nothing shines more than humility. Humility is not a put on act of extra-modesty, but rather a natural expression of man's humaneness. You are human. So, feel human, act human, and be human. Humility is the best dress

6 situations in a relationship when it’s worth lying

  Sometimes lying. In some cases, lying can help you cheer up your partner or even may save your life. 1. When you leave an aggressive partner. If you have decided to get out of a destructive relationship and you’re preparing to step back, you’re free to lie. Your main task is to draw his attention to save money, to gather your things, to make contacts with people who will help you get out of this relation. The aggressor’s reaction is unpredictable if he understands that the victim is escaping. Therefore, it is better to stay alive and healthy than fair and honest. #2. When the partner asks, “Have you ever loved someone more than you love me?” If you have not previously agreed on absolute honesty, then answer “no”. Let’s admit that there was a stronger feeling in your life than the current one. Who will feel better if you tell the truth? #3. When you make a surprise Usually, the man who a surprise is being prepared may open his third eye and also the ability to see through the wall...

Spirituality & Death

What is spirituality? What is death? Do we live on after death? What happens to us? Does it even make sense to ask questions like “What is my future after death”? My spiritual quest began at a young age, although I didn’t know that it was called spirituality. But I dwelt deeper into life due to my love for Quantum Mechanics. I will write a blog on that some other time. But for now, I’ll stick to the topic of my blog. Spirituality is anything beyond the physical dimension and not for the faint-hearted. Because what any yogic practice does, is that it dilutes your strong likes and dislikes, perceptions or ego etc… So, many people fear loosing themselves in the process as they are too attached with themselves or the world around them. But that’s just half of the story. We all have a “warehouse” of Karma that needs to be worked out. Our past and present life karma, likes and dislikes, desires for material pleasures (even spiritual pleasures) keeps us in bondage and we end up getting re-inc...

Here’s to the wild ones. Here’s to you...

Here’s to the fallen, the broken and the shattered.  To the warriors who know that to be cracked is to let the light in deeper.  Who know that the best fruit is on the very tip of the branch and the brightest jewels are hidden within the roughest of surfaces. Here’s to the ones intoxicated by the burning of the winds of change in their lungs and who live in the lands that others fear to tread. Here’s to the ones who raise their voices to the heavens even though they don’t always know the words. Here’s to the rare beings who walk the road less travelled, taking the adventure that rises on this path with purpose and passion. Here’s to the rebels, the heartsick originals, and the bittersweet loneliness that fuels their spirit.  To the ones who won’t conform, back down or step aside.  To the ones who were not born to fit in but to gloriously stand out.  To those who are here to be midwives of the genuine. Here’s to the awakened ones whose purpose is to f...
