Pride can ask for something and when it does not get it, it attacks and fights.
Dignity on the other hand asks, waits, respects and perhpas clarifies. It does not attack or fight or diminsh others.
We can get use to using pride to get all that we want. Therein lies the point of study. Pride fights and in the fight respect and dignity are often thrown away. Such a way of doing things is not in line I firmnly believe with the Being and the conduct of one on the path.
If dignity has to act against the wishes of others, it does so in a way that maintains dignity both inside and outside.
The dignity of the Being is what we all wish to find. Before we arrive at it we must establish dignity in our human life. That is within us here and now in our physical life. In our thoughts, feelings and actions.
