Guest guest Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 This is from another : THE GREATEST OF VIRTUESIt was pride that caused the fall of Lucifer and Adam. If you should ask me what are the ways of God, I would tell you that the first is humility, the second is humility, and the third is still humility. Not that there are no other precepts to give, but if humility does not precede all that we do, our efforts are fruitless.(St. Augustine, `The Wisdom of the Saints')He sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, " Whoever wants to be first must be last of all and servant of all. " (Jesus, Mark 9:35)…the greatest of virtues, pleasing to God above all others—humility.(Babaji in `Autobiography of a Yogi,' Paramahansa Yogananda) -- ----- " Let Noble thoughts come to us from every side " .- RigVeda (1-89-i) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
