Besides, you're not clarifying the difference between having the attitude or mindset of a beginner, versus actually being a beginner or acting like one. Same difference between being " like a child " in one's innocence or attitude, versus becoming or acting like a child (childish). Too often I see devotees act like a child expecting others to take care of them. This is usually done by other irritated devotees, pushed into the role of parent. Same thing with a beginner. If one stays a beginner, then they're not humble, they're just ignorant. tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
