Generally we don't Like Humility - (4099)

We don't like humility because of the concepts we have about it. 

Let's see our concepts then. It's an interesting exercise to review all of our concepts. This post in some way is a very short review of some common concepts. 

The proof is that hardly anyone has read this post, typically posts on lust get 40 to 50 reads while these humility posts have gotten a third of that over the same time.

We see it as being submitted or having to submit to something that we don't like or want.

When we like something there is no feeling of submission. There is no feeling of having to be humble. When we don't like something then we feel the pain of having to be submitted. In this case the wise thing to do is to look deep into what we are submitted to and find goodness in it or value in it so as to like it more and more. If we can't then it is karma and we just have to pay it, that's all. It will end. Or just change it. 

It seems that we are never going to be able to come out of that of being submitted, that we will be controlled forever and all our quality of life will be gone.

Karma can double us over, however karma has a start and an end, always. That is a karmic concept, when there is no karma or little karma there is freedom. That is freedom in the service. One can only really feel freedom in the service when one has love in their heart for others. The selfish people unfortunately deny themselves this kind of freedom, they are always trying their best to get rid of people to experience their freedom. A very narrow way to live. Totally dependent on circumstance forever, this life and the all the ones to come.

Anyway if it is karma we are paying and through paying we will be free. 

We think it means to be a servant all of our life. 

We think this because we want to be served all of our life. We in reality both serve and are served. To want only one is not balance. Life always tends to balance.

To our Being we are a servant here in terms of the physical world all of the time nearly. We are Its instrument, not the other way around.

To be humble is to not be appreciated. We just have to accept the second best.

We can't always be number one. But we can always make the Being number one to us. Even we can make others of high priority. That we can determine that we can control. Trying to control others to make us appreciated or number is an impossible task, one that if we try to achieve we will only set ourselves up for failure.
