Great are the humble of heart. Your gentleness inspires. Your words clarify. Your silence soothes. dominion.
The Fools are those who seek to appear too wise. They despise that pride and arrogance are ingenious mechanisms of illusion. They feed on the illusion of superiority and, for that very reason, are always hungry. Melancholic is the path of those who spend their whole life pretending for themselves and for others, increasingly distant from the peace that emanates from authenticity. They move from side to side, distracted by the orders of the lower self, that poor beggar who tries to convince himself by belittling others. Until, humiliated, they finally discover themselves humble.

The sun does not exalt itself with its own brightness, any more than the trees boast of offering shelter and bend down to offer us their best fruit. They only humbly fulfill their simple nature. We are here to free ourselves from the heavy chains of pride and ascend. Together. To understand that the only rewarding victory is the one conquered over our inner conflicts, every day. Humility is the rare jewel of self-improvement, shining without dazzling in anyone's eyes.

Lessons are offered moment by moment to dedicated students. Meek, compassionate and welcoming, they are grateful for the opportunity to meet infinite teachers on the long road ahead. As they learn, they also teach. Without expecting toxic flattery in return for what they willingly share. Glories and rewards come like a morning breeze entering the temple of the humble. They know that they are not the center of the universe, but that the whole universe rests in them.
